Foreword:
Jerusalem has been depicted pictorially innumerable times and in almost every form imaginable. It now gives me great pleasure to introduce Jerusalem in an embroidered form.
The embroidered sites in this book should be considered a direct continuation of the handlcraft tradition from Biblical times. It is with pride that I recommend This book to the women of the world.

Israel’s handicrafts are in the process of unequalled development due to the influence of world cultures in the area where all rellgions meet. I feel fortunate in being connected with this cultural development and being able to encourage an interest and deep love for Jerusalem through fine embroidery,
