Happy Passover!

 


Last week I read a beautiful story here on Jews in Uganda and decided to do a blog post to mark the first night of the holiday (tonight).  I am fascinated by all holidays and the traditions that accompany them.  

It seems fitting to share some beautiful textiles I found that marks the holiday. 

I found a beautiful Passover quilt at the Lady Bird Quilt blog, please check it out here!

I was charmed by the many Matzah covers I found, many of which are embroidered.  A good explanation on why the matzah is covered is here.  I particularly liked the antique ones:

There's also a tutorial on a matzah cover available here if you want to make one.

Wishing you a day of peace and reflection!
