Hillel Piece On Site

This is what the Hillel piece looks like in place. We are all thrilled with how it all turned out and it looked lovely through the window last night after services. All in all a very successful first public commission!

Finished!

Sleeved, labelled and *everything*. I am so glad I made the sleeve yesterday. I usually put it off til last, but as I was angsting over the lettering and having an odd schedule day, I chose to make the sleeve first. Details to follow, let's just say I am relieved it is finished, but will miss it because it really did more than I thought it would do when I first accepted the commission. We hang it tomorrow.

Hillel Piece Progress Report

Machine embroidery! All that is left is the grape leaves in this shot.

Figs

Full view (slightly bent because the piece is on the sofa)

Figs, pomegranates and olives.


Next: star brick quilting in the bricks and then it is on the buildings and stars (I'm saving the quote for last)
