The atturah was hand made by a woman. Her grand daughter will soon be bat mitzvah. I wove the cloth and sewed her atturah onto the the tallis. We will soon tie the tzitzi and then it will be done. I must admit her hand work is excellent. It really provides a beautiful piece for there grand daughter.Carl's Weaving
