Well I finally finished my quilt. Here's the grand unveiling.
Let me just say that although it looks simple, this took a lot of work, especially since everything was done by hand. Here's the picture I drew originally.
It served as my road map for the quilt. Towards the end, I decided that I didn't want the fence and bird, because I think all that brown in the main part of the quilt would have been too dark. Instead, I opted for a chicken house with three chickens. I also decided to use the brown for the borders to make it look like a brown picture frame. I have to say, even though this took me a long time, I'm very pleased with the way it came out. I sewed on three attachments on the back and stuck a dowel through it so that it could be hung up.
Here's a picture of us during the Feast of Booths. We have some friends coming to visit us!
We also had a very nice and quiet Hanukkah. Here is our Hannukiah. We bought it in the Old City in Jerusalem some years back. It's handmade and very unique.

I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
