Handmade with Heart — Embroidered Prayer Mats from Kashmir
These exquisite hand-embroidered Prayer Mats are more than just beautiful items for worship—they’re a symbol of hope, empowerment, and community.
Lovingly crafted by vulnerable women in Kashmir, each mat represents a journey of learning, resilience, and dignity. Through a vocational program run by Mother HelpAge, these women are taught valuable embroidery skills, enabling them to earn a living and support their families.
🌸 A Labor of Love
Each mat takes over five weeks to complete, stitched by a team of sisters using vibrant, shiny silk threads. Every design is unique—no two are alike. These are not factory-made products; they are one-of-a-kind works of art, made with care and devotion.
📿 More Than Just a Prayer Mat
When you purchase one of these mats, you’re not just buying a beautiful item for your home or prayer space—you’re becoming part of a powerful story. A story of sisterhood, self-sufficiency, and change.
💖 Support That Goes Beyond
Part of the proceeds go directly to the artisans and to cover training and material costs at the centre—ensuring that more women can benefit from this life-changing opportunity.
“No picture can truly capture their beauty—you have to see and feel them to understand the heart behind every stitch.”
