Attractive cloth bags

Paalaguttapalle Bags are produced by Dalitwada women from Paalaguttapalle, a small village in Chittoor, Andhra Pradesh. They stitch a range of different types of cloth bags and cushion covers. They also make hair accessories, and spicy traditional pickles. The enterprise was set up as a means of livelihood by the women to sustain their families after agricultural activities suffered due to drought.

A variety of designs is available. The women of Paalaguttapalle recently learnt mesh-screen printing, adding to their skills. Kalamkari art, a traditional block-painting technique from Andhra Pradesh, also features on their beautifully stitched bags. Drawstring bags, compartment bags, backpacks, tote bags, among other types, are available. They are open to bulk orders and custom orders, or you can choose from the many designs and types available on their website.
