A & A Quilts: August 2011

Adi and Avner just had their second child! Together, we made this quilt for their little baby girl. Mazel tov!

Baby gifts and so much more!

We have developed an entire repertoire of different styles, colors and sizes of baby quilts with matching wall hangings, changing pads, totes for cribs, and play-stations. We have also created larger quilts for youth, single, or double beds, chuppot, and tote bags!

We have been making baby quilts in two sizes --
-- for the baby carriage -- 24 X 34 inches
-- for the crib -- 36 X 44 inches

and changing pads -- 18 X 24".

In addition, we make TV or couch quilts, 42 X 56 inches, and youth quilts which are 54 X 72 inches, which is perfect for a child up to age 8.

All sizes are approximate!

All of our quilts are 100% cotton and fully washable -- except for the coexistence quilts which are dry clean only! The changing pads have a nylon ski jacket backing -- they are washable but not 100% cotton!

Coexistence Quilts

For a long time we have been interested in the subject of mutual respect and understanding between Jews and Arabs, all within Israel. We decided that our quilting should reflect this attitude and, as a result, we created what we are calling our "coexistence quilts" -- quilts that are made jointly by Jewish and Palestinian women. These quilts include an embroidered central element made by the women of "Desert Embroidery" of Laqiya which is a non-profit organization for the empowerment of Bedouin women in the northern Negev. The organization provides the women with a framework for getting together, hearing lectures about a wide array of subjects, and embroidering all sorts of projects for sale in their shop.

In order to see examples of these quilts, choose "coexistence quilts" from the index below.
