Profound thanks for your gracious feedback to yesterday's newsletter. It is moving to know how deeply engaged you are in the project, and that many of you want to stitch another panel or illumination.
And so here is an opportunity that has been on the back burner for some time. I planned to propose it in the next newsletter, but the number of re-registrations that arrived today prompts a speedier response.
Deuteronomy means "second time" because it recaps many of the events and laws from the previous four books.
We welcome all stitchers who want to do a second text panel to send in a new registration. We will work backwards from Deuteronomy 30:18, which is section #1433.
Feel free to a register now, but you may not receive an invoice until after Passover.
P.S. From beginning to end
TSBS was created as a project of engagement and education. I had no idea what the response would be, but I thought that if we had the first panel and the last one, the Torah would in some sense be complete. And so as Miriam was stitching the beginning of Genesis, I was stitching the end of Deuteronomy. Thank you for filling the middle with such beauty and spirit!
