Woman Uses Sewing to Express Spirituality

Goldgaber has spent her life sewing her own clothes. But it wasn’t until she developed an interest in quilting that her sewing really took off. She decided to express her spirituality through sewing Judaic fabric art. “I experimented with some patterns so that I could make the Star of David, and little by little I started creating my own designs,” Goldgaber said. “Some of my pieces are made to be hung from a wall, and they look like paintings.”

Goldgaber uses imported cotton batik in different colors and patterns to complete her work. She makes everything from quilted tote bags and pillow cases to table runners and challah covers. However, she’s always looking to broaden the appeal of her fabric art. “I am looking to develop more designs in my fabric workshop,” Goldgaber said. “I would like to make community quilts, and I’ve started creating chuppahs (wedding canopies) for Jewish weddings.”
