Greetings to you and Faye! Wow! Great pattern. I can hardly wait to make one as a hostess gift for our Aunt Sandy when we go to her annual Channukah party. She's gonna love it. Thanks, Robyn! -- arielart on Ravelry

Hi, love the pattern! Want to make it for a Jewish friend. Can you explain or show how to embroider the letters on the sides for those of us who are not Jewish? I really don't know what's supposed to go on the sides. :o)
