Jewish Prayer Shawl

All of this gallery are the same prayer shawl. It was created for a young woman as a Bat Mitzvah gift from her grandmother. The two are very close and travel often to gardens together. The flowers depicted are among their favorites.

The beads used throughout were collected by grandmother on her many trips around the world.

The sun/moon image holding the tzitzit was drawn by the young woman.

One of my favorite pictures of this piece is showing my young neighbor, who wanted to know what I was doing, the bead with gold in it placed so the young woman will always know she is worth her weight in gold to her grandmother.
