About the Class:
Workshop will take place on Oct. 29th at 2 pm. Location details to follow after purchase. This workshop is ideal for those with stitching skills (i.e,. you've sewn in a button before), or those who know the basics of tatreez and want to take their skill to the next level. There is a 20-30 minute teaching portion in the beginning where brief textile history will be covered, including textiles from the Syrian region and Gaza region in Palestine. There will also be a demo on the mechanics of attaching, embroidering on, and removing waste canvas (the traditional practice of embroidering onto clothing). The rest of the workshop is hands-on. Students will take home their tatreez work on a VELA hijab!

With every stitch, we mobilize a collective movement, for ourselves and future generations.
Let customers speak for us
i thought i wasn’t gonna like it bc of the shade change, BUT I LOVE IT. i got so much compliments when i wore it. i’m so happy
The color is a little bit more grayish than I thought but it goes so well with black outfits
Love this pattern, just happened to notice it’s a bit shorter than the solid modals I have for some reason
absolutely love this hijab and the colors in! I didn't pay attention enough while purchasing but i love the tones of green in the watercolor!
Dark sage is officially my favourite vela scarf colour. Compliments the skin tone so beautifully and goes lovely with light and dark clothes.
