Tatreez Talk

S7E5. Introducing Tatreez Talk in Arabic with Tasneem

Send us Fan Mail IN THIS EPISODE, Lina and Amanne make a big announcement: Tatreez Talk is officially expanding into Arabic-language episodes, hosted by tatreez artist and educator Tasneem! THE ANNOUNCEMENT Tatreez Talk is launching a new arm of the podcast recorded fully in Arabic Hosted by Tasneem (@tasneem.tatreez) — digitizer, cross-stitch educator, and researcher, and a familiar face from a past episode The goal: open up conversations with guests who have a wealth of knowledge but aren't comfortable interviewing in English Lina and Amanne will step back as listeners for these episodes — a first for the podcast MEET TASNEEM Started her tatreez journey at the end of 2024, during the genocide, as a way to reconnect with Palestine and other Palestinians (check out her TT interview!) Went from hobby stitcher to researcher — digitizing traditional motifs, teaching cross-stitch and the tahriri stitch, and documenting stories Found community and friendship around the world through tatreez, and describes the practice as both therapy and resistance WHY ARABIC EPISODES MATTER Creates space for stitchers and elders without a big platform, or without social media at all, to be heard Reconnects diaspora Palestinians to Arabic alongside tatreez itself Surfaces oral histories and shared struggles (fair pay, copyright, preserving heritage while making a living) that don't always come through in English Referenced Thread of Identity and Widad Kawar's work as inspiration for centering the women behind the thobe, not just the thobe itself Framed as a way to "stop the circle of regret" — recording elders' and stitchers' stories before they're lost WHAT TO EXPECT Same spirit as Tatreez Talk, shaped in Tasneem's own voice and format English subtitles planned for YouTube so non-Arabic speakers can follow along A great excuse for diaspora listeners to practice their Arabic Episodes will be sprinkled into the season — no fixed schedule yet SEND US YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS Know an elder, educator, or stitcher who teaches or speaks about tatreez in Arabic?

S7E4. A Grandmother's Craft, A Granddaughter's Vision with Teta Zuhria & Suha

Send us Fan Mail MEET THE DUO BEHIND ASHGHAL EL TETA: TETA ZUHRIA, A TATREEZ ENTHUSIAST AND CRAFTS LOVER & SUHA, AN INTERIOR ARCHITECT, TATREEZ ADMIRER AND LOVER OF ALL HANDMADE OBJECTS (@ashghalelteta). Through Ashghal el-Teta, they’re creating tatreez-inspired artwork that bridges tradition and modern design. Teta Zuhria's love of tatreez started as a child in a small village near Hebron, nagging her own mother and grandmother to teach her the craft. Suha, an interior architect, grew up watching her mother stitch and eventually joined her — bringing an architect's eye for space, color, and storytelling into their shared practice. We talk about how their signature piece, Bab al-Dar (a tatreez-embroidered door), came to life, and the deeply personal commission for their friend Dina, recreating the door from her family's home in Gaza using photos from a family celebration. Suha shares how she digitizes and deconstructs traditional motifs "like Morse code," while Teta Zuhria brings decades of stitching mastery to every piece, and the two open up about their process, their color-palette debates, and what it means to name their business after the moment Teta Zuhria became a grandmother. You’ll hear about: >> 1:30: Teta Zuhria & Suha’s connection to Palestine >> 2:22: Teta Zuhria’s tatreez journey >> 5:00: Suha’s tatreez journey >> 7:32: How Suha’s background in architecture influenced their approach to tatreez >> 11:05: A commission for Dina & details behind Bab al-Dar >> 18:54: Becoming a teta as the impetus for Ashghal El Teta >> 21:59: The takeaway for customers and the process of commissioning >> 29:20: What’s next for Ashghal El Teta >> 31:13: Influence from Khalili traditional tatreez >> 37:00: Life lessons from tatreez Rate, Review, & Follow on Your Favorite Podcast Platform “I love Palestinian embroidery and Tatreez Talk.” <– If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!

S7E3. Finding Her Way Home Through Tatreez with Israa

Send us Fan Mail ISRAA IS A TATREEZ ARTIST AND TEACHER BUILDING COMMUNITY IN OTTAWA (@tatreez.by.israa). Her family's story stretches from Al-Falouja to a refugee camp in Gaza, then Saudi Arabia, and eventually Canada — and it wasn't until she left Gaza that she discovered tatreez as a way to reconnect with a part of her identity she felt was missing. What started as a personal desire to fill her new home with tatreez turned into teaching sessions for local youth and allies, a ripple effect of students who've since gone on to teach others, and a deep, ongoing relationship with her own family's craft. Check out this article Israa was featured in! We talk about the devastating loss of family photos and heirlooms during the genocide, the recent arrival of her parents in Canada after nearly two years of processing, and how tatreez became a thread back to a grandmother she never had the chance to know. Israa also shares her multi-thobe journey in progress and an exciting upcoming community art collaboration with artist Hala Al-Madi (her website), bringing together tatreez pieces from women across Ottawa into a single gallery installation this fall. You’ll hear about: >> 1:29: Israa’s roots in Gaza >> 6:14: Connecting to Gaza by learning tatreez >> 11:12: Starting tatreez community in Ottawa >> 20:35: Israa’s (ongoing) thobe journey >> 27:29: Art collaboration with Hala Madi >> 30:10: Teaching kiddos tatreez >> 32:36: Growing community while energy around the Palestinian cause has waned >> 36:40: Israa’s life lesson from tatreez Rate, Review, & Follow on Your Favorite Podcast Platform “I love Palestinian embroidery and Tatreez Talk.” <– If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!

S6E7. Small Windows Into Tatreez with Abeer of Taqa

Send us Fan Mail ABEER IS AN URBAN DESIGNER AND LIFELONG TATREEZ ENTHUSIAST, USING DESIGN AS A WAY TO CONNECT WITH HER PALESTINIAN ROOTS (@taqaclothing). Abeer shares her family's connection to Palestine — her mother from Yaffa and father from Jerusalem, though her family was displaced during the 1948 Nakba. She started Taqa Clothing as a way to experiment with applying traditional Palestinian embroidery to everyday clothing while maintaining its cultural significance. For Abeer, Taqa is an ongoing experiment around creating wearable Palestinian designs that don't scream "traditional costume" but subtly carry cultural heritage, experimenting with larger stitches and modern interpretations while staying true to traditional patterns. She’s also developing a digital archive to document historical Tatreez patterns and ensure Palestinian embroidery continues to thrive. Taqa has become more than just a creative project, it's now a vehicle for supporting Palestine, with all proceeds going to Gaza-based initiatives. Despite the difficulty of creating during the ongoing genocide, Abeer continues to participate in fundraising efforts like silent auctions. Ultimately, Tatreez has connected Abeer to her Palestinian roots, served as a conversation starter about Palestine, and taught her the importance of cultural preservation in the face of heritage theft. She’s open to collaborations and offers to help other Palestinian women who want to start their own Tatreez businesses. You’ll hear about: >> 0:50: Abeer’s connection to Palestine >> 3:15: The role of tatreez in Abeer’s upbringing >> 5:05: Starting Taqa >> 8:41: The evolution of Taqa and developing a digital archive >> 16:45: Reflections after exploring old Palestinian dresses >> 19:56: Experimenting with how to tatreez >> 24:45: Abeer’s design process >> 29:02: The feeling when wearing Taqa >> 33:17: Palestinian dress embroidery archive >> 39:00: Fundraising through Taqa >> 41:37: Life lessons from tatreez Rate, Review, & Follow on Your Favorite Podcast Platform “I love Palestinian embroidery and Tatreez Talk.” <– If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!

S6E6. The Butterfly Motif with Watfa

Send us Fan Mail WATFA IS A TATREEZ ARTIST, EDUCATOR/HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL, FIBER ARTS TEACHER AND PHOTOGRAPHER (@stitched_by_foof). She shares her deep family connection to Palestine, tracing her father's journey from Dirar Al-Ba'ain near Ramallah to Brazil, where he met her mother, and eventually settling in the South Bronx. For her, growing up in a tight-knit Palestinian community that mirrored village life in Palestine created a cultural "little Deir Al-Ba'ain" in New York. As a dedicated embroiderer, Watfa learned from her father's sister and preserved traditional motifs while also innovating. She shares fascinating stories about her photography work capturing tatreez in Gaza during the 1980s-90s, documenting patterns that may no longer exist today. She passes on these traditions, using butterfly motifs from her aunt's dresses for her daughter's projects, making her work a living bridge between generations and preserving cultural heritage that faces ongoing erasure. Watfa shares her life lesson that "telling [her] story" through embroidery has been transformative, helping her embrace her dual identity and express herself authentically. Despite her busy life as an educator and mother, she finds precious moments to create, using train rides for crafting and keeping multiple projects underway. This episode is a reminder to share your stories, because tatreez serves as both personal expression and cultural resistance in the face of ongoing Palestinian displacement and erasure. You’ll hear about: >> 0:58: Watfa’s connection to Palestine >> 6:32: Growing up Palestinian-Brazilian in the Bronx >> 11:43: Learning tatreez and herself visiting Palestine >> 19:36: Photographing tatreez at home and in Gaza >> 22:30: Watfa’s art upon returning >> 25:43: Embarking on a thobe >> 36:07: Teaching fiber arts >> 41:36: How engaging with tatreez has shifted >> 44:50: Current projects >> 48:36: Life lesson from tatreez Rate, Review, & Follow on Your Favorite Podcast Platform “I love Palestinian embroidery and Tatreez Talk.” <– If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!

S6E5. Stitching the Diaspora's Heart with Sarah

Send us Fan Mail SARAH IS A MICROBIOLOGY STUDENT AND BEGINNER TATREEZ ARTIST FROM AUSTRALIA (@stitching.intifada). Originally from villages near Haifa and Safad that were ethnically cleansed in 1948, Sarah's parents grew up in Lebanese refugee camps before migrating to Australia where she and most siblings were born. Despite never having physically visited Palestine, Sarah has found the "perfect fusion" of her love for art and country through Tatreez. Sarah's Tatreez journey began when she gifted materials to family members who wanted to learn, and after October 2023, she felt compelled to pick up the needle herself as another way to connect with Palestine amid the genocide. She quickly discovered how her public stitching sparked conversations with strangers about Palestinian culture, turning her art into a form of advocacy. Despite being a beginner, she has already hosted workshops and is hosting regular Tatreez Circles in Melbourne in 2026 (if you're Melbourne-based, reach out!). Sarah shares how Tatreez has taught her to embrace imperfection, learning that mistakes in stitching—and in life—are part of the bigger narrative rather than something to be erased. As she works on her first tatreez dress (thobe), she envisions a lifelong commitment to the art, eventually passing it to her daughter while continuing to build community and use her needle as both a connection to heritage and a tool for cultural preservation and advocacy. You’ll hear about: >> 1:02: Sarah’s connection to Palestine >> 4:08: Palestinian community in Australia >> 5:25: Relationship to tatreez before and after beginning >> 10:26: Finding community through tatreez >> 13:36: Unlocking intergenerational connections >> 22:01: What Sarah hopes the next generation gets through tatreez >> 23:30: Sarah’s tatreez projects >> 28:33: What’s next >> 32:42: Sarah’s life lesson from tatreez Rate, Review, & Follow on Your Favorite Podcast Platform “I love Palestinian embroidery and Tatreez Talk.” <– If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!

S6E4. Where Tatreez Meets Poetry with Giovanna

Send us Fan Mail GIOVANNA (JO-VA-NA), A TATREEZ ARTIST, POET, AND STUDENT ACTIVIST (@giovanna_writes_poetry). She reflects on her grandparents’ displacement from Jerusalem and Yaffa in 1948 and her family’s movement through Lebanon, Jordan, and eventually the United States. Giovanna’s journey into tatreez began relatively recently through a workshop in Seattle with Hala and Sabrene (both previous guests on Tatreez Talk!), marking a powerful moment of reconnection with her culture. Despite not growing up surrounded by tatreez practices, she recalls owning a traditional thobe as a child, which served as an early—though distant—touchpoint to the craft. Throughout the conversation, Giovanna reflects on what it means to come to tatreez later in life, without prior exposure, and how that experience can feel both isolating and deeply meaningful. The discussion highlights themes of cultural rediscovery, intergenerational connection, and the role of art in identity and activism. Her story illustrates how tatreez can serve as a bridge between past and present, even for those who didn’t grow up immersed in the tradition. You’ll hear about: >> 00:41: Giovanna’s connection to Palestine >> 2:18: How Giovanna began her tatreez journey >> 5:18: Evolving tatreez practice and the Seattle tatreez community >> 11:01: Conversations through tatreez >> 12:53: Giovanna’s poetry >> 16:25: Creative process through Palestinian identity >> 19:27: Giovanna’s tatreez design approach >> 21:36: Tatreez projects in 2026 >> 23:23: Major life lesson from tatreez Rate, Review, & Follow on Your Favorite Podcast Platform “I love Palestinian embroidery and Tatreez Talk.” <– If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!

S6E3. A Lifetime of Tatreez with Hajja Haleemah

Send us Fan Mail HAJJA HALEEMAH IS A PALESTINIAN GRANDMOTHER WHOSE LIFE HAS BEEN DEEPLY INTERTWINED WITH TATREEZ. She shares stories about her upbringing in Palestine, her family, and her enduring love for returning home. Through her reflections, we get a glimpse into everyday life, community connections, and how cultural traditions are passed down across generations. Hajja Haleemah explains how she first learned tatreez and how embroidery was historically learned by observing others. She discusses how designs were often copied from what people saw around them rather than from formal patterns, highlighting the communal and organic nature of the craft. Over the decades, Hajja has hand-embroidered 14 traditional Palestinian dresses and tapestries, each one carrying its own story. Among these pieces is her remarkable Intifada thobe, a dress she spent three years embroidering, inspired by a garment her sister brought from Ramallah. The thobe has since become a symbol of pride and resistance, even accompanying Hajja to protests where people from many backgrounds stopped to photograph and celebrate the piece. You’ll hear about: >> 1:31: Hajja Haleemah’s connection to Palestine >> 3:04: How she started tatreez >> 4:28: Beginning to make Palestinian dresses >> 9:26: Tatreez when living in Palestine >> 11:10: Hajja Haleemah’s intifada thobe >> 13:54: Hajja’s current projects >> 20:50: Her tatreez practice now >> 22:14: Hajja’s advice for all of us!

S5E12. The Body in the Thobe with Samar

Send us Fan Mail SAMAR HUSSAINI IS A FINE ARTIST WHO HAS INCORPORATED TATREEZ INTO HER BEAUTIFUL WORK (@samardesignsandart). Samar shares her powerful family history rooted in Jerusalem, tracing her grandparents’ forced displacement in 1948, her grandfather’s scholarly work, and her parents’ lifelong political activism. Growing up between the U.S. and her Palestinian heritage, she reflects on the deep influence of her family—particularly the women—who preserved culture, education, and resilience across generations. She describes how tatreez re-emerged in her life through inherited pieces, memories of her grandmother teaching her, and eventually through her work as a fine artist. Samar now creates sculptural thobes and layered paintings incorporating image transfers of tatreez, remnants of family embroidery, and even fragments of her father’s political writings. Her work centers on absence, memory, land, and the emotional experience of Palestinians in the diaspora. Samar emphasizes how art allows her to humanize Palestinians and shift narratives in gallery spaces, often serving as her form of activism. She shares emotional stories of viewers who had never met a Palestinian before, and how her work creates openings for connection, empathy, and dialogue. She also discusses passing tatreez to her daughter and the life lessons—patience, calmness, embracing mistakes—that stitching helped instill.

S5E11. Heritage Work as Liberation Work with Hadil of Thoub Tale

Send us Fan Mail HADIL IS AN ACTIVIST AND CREATOR BEHIND THOUB TALE, ALONGSIDE HER VISIONARY MOTHER RABA (@thoub.tale). She shares her family’s displacement from Dayr Aban and how growing up near Al-Baqa’a refugee camp shaped her commitment to identity and struggle. Moving to New York revealed the repression of Palestinian identity in the U.S., clarifying her purpose: to speak intentionally about Palestine and her family’s history. Raba is the original visionary behind Thoub Tale, which collects and preserves vintage Palestinian thobes. Hadil joined to support logistics and social media, but soon fell in love with tatreez itself—studying motifs as a coded language of women’s memory, carrying history, geography, emotion, and resistance. Today, Hadil and Raba upcycle vintage embroidery into modern garments in ways that honor sustainability and protect ancestral work, prioritizing pieces returning to Palestinian hands. Hadil hopes future generations approach tatreez not just as aesthetics, but as a living practice of liberation, storytelling, and connection to land. You’ll hear about: >> 1:18: Hadil’s connection to Palestine >> 2:47: Experience growing up in Jordan and then moving to the US >> 6:59: Introduction to tatreez and the start of Thoub Tale >> 13:10: A story of an orange vintage thobe >> 16:03: The process of collecting and upcycling vintage athwab >> 23:01: Customers and cultural appropriation conversations >> 31:22: What Hadil hopes future generations will take from tatreez >> 43:56: What’s next >> 46:11: Major life lessons from tatreez Rate, Review, & Follow on Your Favorite Podcast Platform “I love Palestinian embroidery and Tatreez Talk.” <– If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!

S5E10. When Tradition Meets Technology with Belal

Send us Fan Mail BELAL HERBAWI IS A PALESTINIAN GRAPHIC DESIGNER AND PHD RESEARCHER WHOSE WORK FOCUSES ON DIGITIZING AND REINTRODUCING TRADITIONAL TATREEZ MOTIFS INTO CONTEMPORARY DESIGN (@belalherbawi). He grew up in Hebron in a family deeply rooted in textile production—his family owns Hirbawi, the last keffiyeh factory—which shaped his early connection to Palestinian cultural identity and craft. Over time, Belal began learning to stitch himself and immersed in workshops that explored tatreez as meditation, restoration, and creativity. Through his PhD project, he works to digitize motifs and develop a designer’s manual that helps graphic designers use tatreez patterns respectfully while keeping their cultural context intact. He also created Threads of Creativity, a collaborative initiative bringing together artisans and designers—locally and internationally—to reinterpret motifs and generate new compositions for posters, interiors, objects, and digital design. Belal emphasizes that tatreez must remain rooted in its origins and stories, even as colors, formats, and applications evolve. For him, the goal is to make tatreez a living part of everyday Palestinian visual life—not only in fashion, but in branding, interiors, public design, and global creative dialogue. Throughout his journey, the practice has taught him patience, intentionality, and the value of giving time and care to one’s craft—the same values embodied by Palestinian women who carried this tradition forward for generations.

S5E8. Redefining Heritage with Hama

Send us Fan Mail HAMA IS THE OWNER AND FOUNDER OF HAMA, A BRAND MAKING BESPOKE FASHION, CUSTOM TATREEZ ORDERS, READY TO WEAR, ART AND ACCESSORIES (@hama_lifestyle). She begins by sharing her personal connection to Palestine—her name, inspired by poetry, symbolizes the “summit,” and her visit to Palestine in 2010 profoundly shifted her life. Witnessing realities on the ground, from factory struggles to daily restrictions, deepened her connection to heritage. Hama’s work began with refugee women in Jordan. She learned embroidery from them while teaching fashion and business skills, creating pathways for economic independence. After October 2023, her company redirected all profits to Gaza. For her, tatreez isn’t a static tradition but a living language of resistance and solidarity. She also reveals new projects: a global thobe made from diaspora textile pieces and a historical timeline of motifs from Canaanite times to today. Her collections, like Black on Black, reflect the present moment—using embroidery to tell stories of resilience, loss, and collective memory.

Send us Fan Mail NOORA IS THE CO-FOUNDER OF TAITA LEILA, A FEMINIST SOCIAL ENTERPRISE AND FASHION LABEL REIMAGINING PALESTINIAN EMBROIDERY—KEEPING ANCESTRAL STORIES ALIVE IN WAYS THAT WOULD MAKE OUR GRANDMOTHERS PROUD (@taitaleila). Inspired by her grandmother Leila Khalidi, author of The Art of Palestinian Embroidery, Noora shares how her family’s legacy shaped Taita Leila as a platform to keep ancestral stories alive through contemporary fashion. We begin with her Jerusalemite roots, her grandmother’s influence, and the role of embroidery as both archive and living tradition. She reflects on starting the project in 2014 as a way to reconnect with Palestine, reimagining elements of the thobe for modern wear. Noora also speaks to the political realities of producing in Palestine—checkpoint delays, settler violence, and, more recently, navigating the genocide’s impact. Finally, she shares how Taita Leila adapted by working with displaced Gazan embroiderers in Egypt, honoring heritage while supporting women through income, skills, and artistic expression. She frames the brand’s feminist ethos as rooted in empowerment and choice, and sees tatreez as both living resistance and wearable heritage.

S5E6. Color Theory in Tatreez with Kiki

Send us Fan Mail IN TODAY’S EPISODE, WE’RE WELCOMING BACK KIKI (@LOW_KEY_KI) AND DIVING INTO THE WORLD OF COLOR THEORY—HOW COLOR SHAPES OUR STORIES, MOODS, AND THE WAY WE EXPERIENCE TATREEZ. Kiki shares her background in scientific illustration, explaining how light, pigment, and human perception interact to shape our visual experiences. The conversation then dives into color theory fundamentals: complementary colors, the color wheel, and the science of how colors interact. Kiki explains how traditional tatreez historically used simple but powerful color palettes—often drawn from natural dyes—and how modern makers can experiment with blending techniques and variegated threads to push the boundaries of this art form. Finally, the episode roots color deeply in Palestinian history and environment, tracing how colors were inspired by the land, trade, and everyday life. Kiki shares how different regions developed their own palettes, how colors carried social meanings, and how this living tradition continues to evolve. The conversation invites makers to both honor these traditions and explore new creative possibilities.

S5E5. Diaspora Roots Through Tatreez with Leila

Send us Fan Mail LEILA IS A PALESTINIAN TATREEZ ARTIST AND RECENT GRADUATE OF INTERIOR DESIGN BASED IN CANADA (@leilas.gallery). We learn her family’s story of displacement and how growing up in both Arab and Western diasporas shaped her understanding of Palestinian identity. Life in Canada, she explains, made her more intentional about learning, expressing, and sharing her Palestinian heritage. Her journey with tatreez began at a Toronto Palestinian Film Festival workshop and deepened when her grandmother—herself a tatreez practitioner—taught her the “proper way.” She reflects on how tatreez reconnected her to her roots, helped heal generational disconnection, and strengthened her sense of Palestinian identity despite diaspora insecurities around language or belonging. Beyond her personal practice, Leila uses tatreez as a bridge for connection and education. She often introduces it to non-Palestinian friends and teaches at public markets, emphasizing the importance of cultural respect and awareness. We hear about powerful encounters at Toronto’s One of a Kind Market—moments of solidarity, racism, and resilience—that reaffirmed her mission to humanize Palestinians through art. You’ll hear about: >> 1:00: Leila’s connection to Palestine & shifts in Palestinian identity >> 6:23: Her tatreez journey >> 10:45: Influence of tatreez on her identity and connecting with others >> 19:07: Conversations with non-Palestinians through tatreez >> 25:51: What Leila is working on right now >> 29:01: Major life lessons from tatreez Rate, Review, & Follow on Your Favorite Podcast Platform “I love Palestinian embroidery and Tatreez Talk.” <– If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!
