The Gumcha Design Portfolio
– a product of more than 2,000 years of design evolution in handloomed cotton by a community of subsistence farmer/ weavers in the rural areas of the Ganges River Delta.
We hope that you find inspiration in this archive of unique designs. Several more volumes of the GumCha Design Portfolio will soon be available providing hundreds of interesting patterns for study.
Just provide your email contact info.
After signing up, you will be notified when other free volumes of the GumCha Design Portfolio become available.
We respect your privacy. Your information will be used for no other purpose.
We hope that American weavers, fabric designers and artists use this Design Resource to inspire your work and help us save a tradition in handweaving and design that has provided much needed support to farming communities and families in our area for millennia.

A GumCha is the original: cotton scarf, towel, hat, skirt, and air conditioner and are used by millions of hard-working people every day. The GumCha collected in this portfolio are handloomed by rural farming families in West Bengal, India, from 100% Indian cotton. GumCha are about 64”-69” long and from 25”-29” wide, yet only weigh about 4 ounces. There are over 10,000 distinct patterns and color combinations, and because they are handwoven, each is unique.
