CHAYA NESSA AND HER QUILTED
FLANNEL WALL HANGING
Chaya Nessa is 4 years old. I precut
strips of flannel fabric for her and she
sewed them together to form this quilt.
CHAYA NESSA AND TEDDY
Chaya Nessa is holding a teddy that I
made to represent the teddy that I had
when I was a little girl.
LITTLE MAURINE AND HER TEDDY
This is a photo of me and my teddy. I
finally made a teddy that reminded me
of the one I had when I was a little girl.
You can see my grandchildren holding
the one I made.
DEVORAH HOLDING HER QUILT
Devorah, age 11, cut her own strips of
flannel fabric with a rotary cutter and
sewed them together to make a quilt.
She didn’t have that much time to
make more squares so she made a
larger border for her quilt. She says
she wants to start a craft business and
hopefully will sell this quilt.
DEVORAH’S DOLL – VIDA WILLIAMS’
CLASS – June 28, 2007
Devorah and I took a class with teacher
Vida Williams and the “Hello Dollies” doll
club in Sun City Summerlin, Las Vegas,
Nevada on June 28, 2007. Devorah did
her own cutting, sewing, stuffing, painting
and everything else to make this baby
doll.
DEVORAH’S FIRST NEEDLE
PUNCH
Somehow things seem to run
full circle. When I was in Junior
High School I made many
pictures using the technique
called tufting which still hang on
my bedroom wall. Now the
craft has returned many, many,
many years later and is called
needle punch. My 11 year old
granddaughter Devorah has
developed a love for this
technqiue. This is the first
picture that she has punched.
