Final Comfort Quilt

This is the third comfort quilt made for one family.  It goes to a boy 4, a girl 2 and a baby girl of 1.  Their mother was killed this past fall in a rocket attack.  This final quilt was made completely by our newest quilter, Yehudit.  She has never made a quilt before and she did this on her own.  She did a fantastic job.
 
This is the back.  Yehudit had two extra blocks and decided to put them on the back. That was a great idea.  All the squares are made by Bonnie Hunters method of Leaders and Enders.
 
All 3 quilts were delivered Friday morning and the children were very excited and seemed to be happy to have new quilts made just for them.

Sara Is Back From Texas

Sara went to the first Modern Quilt show in Austin.  She had a great time and came home with some goodies. There have been so pictures on blogs already that I'm not going to show any quilts here.  I would love to go next time.  I love the modern quilts.
Sara did bring this home and she'll let you know if it helps. It's supposed to keep rulers from slipping.

Purim

Purim is always fun.  We send food to the poor and gifts to our friends.  Here are just a few pictures that I managed to take.  When the ladies came to sew, each were able to take something home from our gift basket.
These are some gifts that I received
