Gorgeous, Vintage Ralli Quilts

These quilts, handmade by women from Pakistan, are absolutely amazing! Each one is created from vintage fabric quilted together; they are one-of-a-kind, beautiful pieces of art.

“Adorned with bright colors and bold patterns, the quilts are also called rilli, rilly, rallee or rehli derived from the local word ralanna meaning to “mix or connect”. The quilts are just now gaining international recognition, even though women have been making these quilts for hundreds, maybe thousands of years. Every ralli quilt is different and unique They tell a story of the creativity and love of color and design of the women who create them. In the villages, ralli is an important part of a girl’s dowry.”
