gallery page.
Designs are machine
embroidered onto imported silk, rayon or wool or other fabrics as
selected by the customer. I do not use linen since there is the
possibility that the tallit is made of wool or a wool blend. Combining wool with linen is "shatnez"
and is strictly prohibited by Jewish law. I use high-sheen
polyester or rayon thread so that embroidered items can be safely
dry cleaned.
After the designs are
completed, the corners are cut to size, hemmed and pressed. In some
cases, extra 1/2" of fabric is left all around so that the customer
can decide how much to turn under.
I keep many colors of silk
in stock, but if you wish something different, I'll do my best to
accommodate you. You may also send your fabric to me, but be aware
that since embroidery machines use hoops and clamping systems, I must
have enough fabric to work with (minimum
1/4" yard of 45" wide fabric.)
I have hundreds of designs in many categories, including
hundreds in the Judaica category, so let me know if you are
looking for something in particular. Most likely I can
find it for you.
All of the samples below were made for other customers and can
give you some ideas, but you are not limited to these!! I
am continually adding new ones as they are completed.
