Table Runner
This table runner is made with a piece of embroidery made by the Bedouin women at the "Desert Embroidery" shop in Laquiya. They explained to me that the central element is called the "sheikh" because he is the center of everything in the community! And to think that I thought it was a flower!!!

Thanks to Facebook
This floral couch quilt was made in the "coexistence" style, using a piece of Palestinian embroidery made by a woman named Maha who lives in Bethlehem. I have never met Maha, since we live on different sides of the "divide", but we have become facebook friends! When I want new pieces of embroidery, she puts up pictures of different styles and I can choose what I want!
In addition to the embroidery, this quilt integrates the element of "building blocks" which are so easy to make and so popular as a quilting style.

Happy Birthday!
My youngest granddaughter turned one-year-old this week. Her mom requested a new summer quilt since her large crib quilt is made with a flannel backing and is too warm for the Jerusalem summer. So, here is the new one that I made for today's big birthday bash.
The quilt is made from 4 inch squares and measures 32 X 40 inches.
