Let Me Stitch Your Story, Habib(t)i

In our day, the woman who wore the tatreez was the one who stitched it with her own hands. She embroidered her joys, her heartbreaks, her roots — and wore them close, not just for beauty, but for remembrance. The thread was her voice.

Her dress was her story.

But I know, not everyone has the time to learn. Not everyone was taught. That’s why I offer this service — to bridge that space between your heart and the fabric, so you can still wear your story, even if your hands haven’t stitched it yourself.

You tell me what’s in your heart — a name, a date, a place, a feeling — and I’ll design something just for you, using the symbols and patterns of our ancestors.

Each one is made with time, with care, with prayer. I do not rush these things. Tatreez has never been about speed — it is about presence. Each thread is stitched with care, just as it was in the old days — no rushing, no shortcuts.

Only love, memory, and the hands of our ancestors guiding mine.

These are the voices of those who have walked with our stitches.

  • "One of the very first customers and already obsessed! I asked for a cap that blends Palestinian tatreez with my Egyptian roots, and she absolutely nailed it! The red & white patterns, “Egypt” in Arabic, and the insane attention to detail… it’s pure wearable art. Proud to rock something that carries culture, heritage, and so much love in every stitch."

  • My custom hat is one of my favorite items of all times. It’s beautiful, wearable, and I routinely receive compliments on it! I’ve never worked with an artist on a custom piece before, but the experience was so special. During the process I learned about the tradition of tatreez, the meaning behind the patterns, and I was inspired as we talked through the design, patterns, and colors. Shamouti is an incredible artist, great communicator, and lovely human. She was highly receptive to the ideas I put forward, and I loved the way she created new takes on traditional patterns."

  • "I wear my embroidered hat everywhere now. I absolutely love it and I get compliments on it all the time. Mays helped me with the design and I was blown away! Literally perfect especially because I don’t like most designs and mostly wear simple plain things."

    Adam

  • "I love my Shamouti custom made tatreez baseball hat! It was so easy to coordinate with Shamouti and select thread colors and design. Communication was very clear and efficient. It was such a seamless process to bring my vision to life. I love my tatreez embroidered hat!"

    Reema

  • "I absolutely love the embroidery keychain! Shamouti made a beautiful map of Jordan, carefully researching traditional Jordanian patterns and stitching them with so much detail and care. The craftsmanship is incredible, every stitch feels thoughtful and precise. It’s a little piece of art I get to carry with me every day. Truly one-of-a-kind work made with love and talent!"

Now, because this is slow and sacred work, each piece comes with its own price, depending on its size and the time it takes to bring it to life.

Every stitch I make carries your story and our heritage together. This is not just embroidery, habib(t)i — this is legacy. So when you’re ready, come sit with me. Tell me your story. Let me stitch it into something that will last.
