The vests in Hebrew and English
Different Moon Fonts
A tufting rug
Clothes for hip dysplasia
Luna was breech and had left hip dysplasia (with dislocation of the left hip) and put in a Pavlik Harness for 13 weeks. This limited the range of clothes available. I was able to make 3 sets of dungarees and took them to a special place off Nahalat Binyamin to insert the poppers.
The red gingham dungarees
The blue gingham dungarees
Indonesian purple and gold cotton
Pink, orange and red garments
I decided to adapt some free patterns with this wool. And then I dyed all manner of items for Luna
Everyday cardigan and ribbed hat
A bonnet so the hat doesn’t fall over her eyes – a pilot hat
Making the pompoms was fun
Tie Dye for Luna
Matching Liberty Lawn cotton outfits. I made mine!
For Luna’s first birthday
A handmade book with painted buttons. 1 – 8, with 8 shapes and 8 colours. She liked to pull out the paper to stop the puff paint from sticking. It also has a button hole to learn how to buttons and ties to learn how to do bows!
A bronze bangle from Akko
I went with Miriam for the day to Akko. We went to Orocola studio in the old city and each made a bangle from bronze (80% copper and 20% zinc). We learnt how to make the letters firstly using paper. Mine says Luna’s 2 Hebrew names with 2 hearts and the cancer (zodiac sign) for her.
