The New York Times has an interesting (and heavily emailed) article today on Etsy-based small businesses. The story focuses on the craft angle but of course the site is also great for vintage pieces, including textiles. The image above is a detail of a vintage Ralli quilt currently for sale; the seller’s item description includes a nice write-up on what Ralli quilts are.





We produce handmade ralli quilts made by the folk artisans of desert Tharparkar. Our traditional ralli quilts are being shown at International Folk Art Market, Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA. If like to know more about ralli quilts, please contact Patricia Stoddard and visit her site http://www.ralliquilt.com
