Bethlehem Dress Barbie Handcrafted thobe with traditional Bethlehem-inspired embroidery, capturing Palestinian culture.

 

In our home in Wad Rahhal Village in Bethlehem City”, I sew with my sisters and make hand embroidered Palestinian dresses. I grew up on this work. Today, I am 38 years old and still passionate about my work. And thanks to Women of the Sun who helps me to improve my work and spread my work in embroidery.
I am a Biology Teacher, and a mother of 4 children but my interest in embroidery started when I was a child and used to
accompany my mom to her work in embroidery circles and to national events and exhibitions.
