The butterfly represents the FREEDOM we hope this child will have to stand up for what is right. The peace dove represents PEACE. The appliqueed pomegranate has approximately 613 French knots for seeds representing the 613 mitzvot. The pillow can be personalized. Marilyn will be pleased to create that special Bris Pillow for your little guy, or the pillowcase to your left may be rented to you for that special day if you live in Southern Ontario.

"HANDMADE" means it came from the HEART.
The two pictures BELOW show FRONT and REAR of a quilt created by four children ages 8, 5, 4.75 and 2 years old under MARILYN'S supervision. Four cousins prepared this quilt for a new baby cousin. It is 100% washable and is the type of blanket that is likely to become 'THE' SECURITY BLANKIE. The colours were chosen before knowing the sex of the baby. A very special gift for the new baby... a flannelette quilt created in your choice of colours, preshrunk and washed in baby-sensitive soap upon completion. It may be personalized upon request.
