If making a difference globally is part of your goodwill plans for the
holiday, take a look at Dignifiy,
a Calgary company working with women from Bangladesh, Uganda and Rwanda.
The story behind the blankets is an inspiring one, as the goal is to
help remove women from the sex trade and provide new opportunities for
them involving the creation of Bengali traditional kantha blankets. Warm
and stitched up with at least six vintage saris, these blankets look
like something out of an Anthropologie catalogue. The saturated colours
of the Harvest No. 4 Kantha Spread ($196) are just stunning and will
make a cozy statement to whatever room you add this to.
We picture quiet Sunday mornings wrapped up in this with a good book.
