JERUSALEM TALLIT: Two scenes embroidered on body of tallit. Hebrew under scenes are Jerusalem exerpts from Psalms. One side represents DAY and the other side represents NIGHT in the Holy City. The Atarah includes a Scene from Jerusalem and the owner's name in a tri-coloured Hebrew font. The tallit bag coordinates with a contemporary Jerusalem scene. This TALLIT set was custom-designed for a Bar Mitzvah in Salt Lake City, UT in 2011.
BELOW: Wimpel; created to celebrate the birth of a little boy in Southern Ontario Canada. His name is embroidered, his siblings and parents and grandparents on the white cotton (could be silk or flannelette) of the cloth that held him when he was carried to the mohel for his Brit Milah. This fabric is embroidered and made into a strip that will be hung in his bedroom and used to wrap the Torah for his Bar Mitzvah. Often folks hang the wimpel in his bedroom while he grows up. Spaces are left for important dates, his first day of school, first haircut, Bar Mitzvah, and blanks for achievements in his Jewish Life. Send us the fabric and we will make it special with a Jerusalem theme (or other Judaica theme).

LEFT: Jerusalem scene on a challah cover for a Bat Mitzvah. The printed floral fabric was the fabric of the dress she wore for her Bat Mitzvah. The bright pink fabric is the fabric of the Jacket she wore over her dress. Her Bat Mitzvah was celebrated in Hamilton, Ontario. Then, she travelled to Israel and spent the summer at a camp that travelled around Israel. The Jerusalem scene was embroidered as is the peace dove that holds up the challah cover embroidery.
