Pillowcase Dresses - the Saga Continues

By -
You've probably heard snippets of the saga of our beautiful, unique dresses we sent to Israel last month.  Who knew you could take a simple pillowcase, perform some minor alterations and add some embellishments and "viola'" a beautiful little dress is created.  

Our crafters had a goal of 100;  we ended up with 137!  Thank You, Yeshua!  

However, as we quickly discovered, there are international shipping requirements that are taken quite seiously by customs officials.  Back and forth - this and that - time and time again - for every step forward, we fell two steps back!  

Today, we received notification that our lovely, little dresses will be returned (they could have been thrown away or sold at auction - so, again, Thank You, Yeshua!  

Keep praying for the door to open for these dresses to get to Israel.  

And we know that all things work together for the good of them who love G-d, to them
who are called according to His purpose.

On Any Given Sunday...The Common Thread

Tikvah Rabah began quilting for Holocaust survivors just about 3 years ago. In looking back, there have been a few bumps in the road and we've learned a lot: a lot about sewing, quilting, fabric, best practices for efficiency, consistency and TEAMWORK! On any given Sunday we meet we have about 20 or so people with a variety of skill sets. Some have been lifelong seamstresses and quilters while others are just beginning their journey into sewing. On any given Sunday we meet we have 3 generations of people. Women, men and teens. Some have been coming since the beginning while others are new to the fold. The common thread between these people is an intense, unyielding passion and love for these precious people we serve and The G-d of Abraham, Issac and Jacob. And then, there's Yeshua. We desire to serve Him with our hands. The Ruach is ever present washing over these quilts with LOVE and He breathes life in us as we serve! Here's a few of the quilts we'
