Hand Block Printed Quilted Cotton Tote - Midnight Garden

Crafted from hand block printed cotton, this quilted tote evokes the charm of a garden at dusk. Delicate botanical motifs in soft blue unfold across a deep indigo base, creating a pattern that feels both serene and timeless. Striped blue edging frames the design with subtle contrast, while gentle quilting lends structure and softness.

Thoughtfully finished with a zipper closure and an inner pocket for essentials, this tote is designed to accompany everyday moments.

PROVENANCE

This tote is made from hand block printed cotton, a centuries-old craft practiced by artisans across India. Each motif is printed using hand-carved wooden blocks in layered shades of blue. The botanical design draws inspiration from garden landscapes often depicted in traditional textiles, where repeating natural forms create a sense of rhythm and harmony.

PROCESS

The cotton fabric is hand block printed using hand carved wooden blocks, then quilted to lend both softness and structure. Each tote is carefully cut, stitched, and finished by artisans, complete with striped blue edging, padded handles, a zip closure, and an inner pocket. The quilting enhances durability while adding a tactile richness to the fabric.
