Little Boy Quilt with Matching Diaper Pad

During the last few days, we have been very busy sewing and quilting together!  We have a lot of work preparing a number of commissioned quilts -- some of them double bed size! 

Take a look at this baby quilt with matching changing pad! 

A Beautiful Gift

A number of women in our community got together to order this quilt as a gift for a bat mitzvah girl, whose parents are buying her an extra wide new bed.   The quilt size is 70 inches wide and 80 inches in length -- almost fits my double bed!  The bat mitzvah girl asked for turquoise and purple -- which apparently go together quite nicely!  There are also 2 matching pillowcases!

This design is called "convergence" and takes its inspiration from Ricky Tims' Convergence Quilts.

Fair at Shefayim!

The Fair at Shefayim is an initiative of Bank Hapoalim, which offers a chance for people to buy gifts for Rosh Hashanah and, at the same time, to support local non-profit organizations.  The fair is open today all day, and tomorrow evening (motzei shabbat).

Why am I telling you this?  The non-profit organization, Desert Embroidery, from Laquiya has a stand at the fair and they are selling my "coexistence" quilts which include embroidery pieces made by women from their organization!  What a wonderful partnership!

This quilt, among others, is for sale! Come and enjoy! 

It's a Girl!

We just sold this cozy and warm crib quilt (36 X 44") for a baby girl!  It is made of 4 1/2 X 8 1/2" rectangles which are sewn together in an easy pattern.

Baby gifts

We've been quilting for about 10 years and our stash of fabrics has been growing!  Here are four new carriage quilts, made this month, all from fabrics in our stash.

This one is based on the scrappy quilt design --

This is a pinwheel design --













These two are 3 inch and 4 inch squares --

A New Lap Quilt

This lap quilt was made on special order for a friend of my daughter's.  It's in the scrappy style, and mixes stripes with florals and solids.  Aren't the colors bold and wonderful? 

It's a Lazy Summer!

This summer, we haven't been making as many quilts as we've been selling!  Here are pictures of the 3 quilts sold this week!

This pinwheel carriage quilt was embroidered with the name "Audrey".

This scrappy crib quilt was sold to a friend of my daughter's as a gift for a one-year old little boy.

This stunning "coexistence quilt" utilizes a piece of Bedouin embroidery as the central element.   The turquoise and the maroon seem to go together so beautifully! On the two sides, you can see the quilting design called "building blocks" which symbolize the building blocks of a shared future together -- between Palestinians and Jews -- here in Israel.
