New Couch Quilt

I had an idea to take two small pieces of Bedouin embroidery and integrate them together into this couch quilt.  These embroidered elements are from the Center for Bedouin Embroidery, located in Laqiya in the northern Negev. 

As you can see, I used the building blocks as a central motif, together with complementary fabrics. 

These coexistence quilts give me great satisfaction, especially in these difficult times as there is so much tension between Arabs and Jews in Jerusalem.
