Happy July 4th

I just realize it is July 4th. Have a happy day.

 

Bindings

For me the best way to put on a binding is use my towel paper holder. It's so fast and easy this way.

Another Comfort Quilt

This string quilt top was finished awhile ago. I'm happy to say the quilt is finished now.

A Beautiful Day In Israel

The Kotel

This is what it looked like on Yom Jerusalem (Jerusalem Day)

Don't Forget The Family

We are always so busy in our sewing rooms that we might just forget those that are depending on us.

A Speical Chuppah

Quilts For Israel's Wounded Warriors שמיכות ללוחמים הפצועים של ישראל

I read this emotional posting from "The Daily Portion" by Sivan Rahav Meir and wanted to share it and the accompanying photo:
The Chuppah of Ori Ansbacher HY"D
Yesterday was the first wedding ceremony held underneath the wedding canopy created in memory of Ori Ansbacher. Immediately after she was murdered in the woods by Ein Yael in Jerusalem, Batsheva Sadan requested for women to send her embroidered squares that they had created in Ori's memory. Over 5,000 (!) women from all around the world created embroidered squares, which Batsheva transformed into an artistic chuppah. Many of those squares were created from fabric that was very significant to those who sent them: from the IDF uniform of a son, from childhood dolls, from treasured keepsakes. Creating this chuppah reminded Batsheva of the women's work in the Tabernacle in the desert. Also back then, sewing was a spiritual pursuit, women joining together to create something holy. Last night, Nadav and Na'ama were married underneath Ori's chuppah, which from now on will accompany couples on their way to establishing new Jewish homes.

Rabbi Eli Adler said: "This is our response to the brutal murder - to build more homes in Israel, with holiness and joy and gentleness. Earlier, I looked at the words of a poem written by Ori HY"D about a 'world of peace.' But earlier in that same poem, Ori asks us to: "Make peace within you." Before you make world peace, you need first to make inner peace. Within our souls, with those around us, and between husband and wife. This is what we need to be working on. World peace begins here, with what is taking place this moment underneath Ori's chuppah. "

Thank You Sandy

A big thank you to my sister Sandy for all the fabric I brought home with me from the States. She has been collecting pre cuts and other fabric for me to use for my comfort quilts and for family quilts.  Do any of you have a sister as special as mine?

It's Memorial Day In The USA

My Home

When I return from Jerusalem to my home in Betar Illit, this is what I see as we get close. That's my town.

I had a wonderful visit in the USA with my siblings, but so happy to return to my little town in Israel.

30 Yards Of Batting

This is what 30 yards of batting looks like. I ordered it in advance to be sent to the States so I can bring it home on my latest trip. Well, it took 2 suitcases and it wasn't easy. I don't think I'll do it again.

 

Shabbot Shalom

Welcome back everyone. It's the hottest ever in Israel. Over 100+ and so unusual for this time of year.

Hope everyone has a great Shabbos and I'll see you next week for some new projects that are being worked on. 

 

Lag B'Omer Today

One Year

Today is one year since my husband passed away. It has been a difficult year but I see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Thank you to all of you for staying with me.

He Is Correct

So true. The men in our lives understand what's going on.

Jerusalem

I'm back from my trip to Philly and ready to get back to work.

It's a beautiful (hot) time to be back in Israel.
