WIMPELS
Wimpel is a tradition that started several hundred years ago. The blanket in which the baby was wrapped for his Bris was cut into strips, and embroidered with his name, date of birth, a blessing. As he passed through and celebrated each Jewish life cycle event, that event was embroidered onto his wimpel. For his Bar Mitzvah, the Torah was wrapped in his wimpel and that event was embroidered as well. At his wedding, the wimpel adorned the chuppah.
Today, some folks create them for daughters, too, upon their baby namings.
The fabric can be beautiful silk, good quality cotton, or cut up receiving blankets that the baby has used.
Wrap the baby in approx 2 Metres/yards of white/pale blue/your colour choice of 100% cotton quilting cotton or 100% silk dupioni silk or silk noile for brit milah or baby naming. Send Marilyn the fabric and she will fashion a beautiful wimpel to commemorate the baby's birth, baby naming, brit milah and other Jewish life cycle events(to be added later) .
