About this episode

23. REVIVING TATREEZ WITH MUNA

MUNA EL-ZEET IS THE FOUNDER OF TATREEZ REVIVAL AND A TATREEZ WORKSHOP FACILITATOR (@umzaatar & @tatreezrevival). 

Together, we talk about Muna’s connection to Palestine, the woman who taught & continues to inspire her Tatreez, and the global community she’s helping build. 

Spoiler alert: Your invitation to join Tatreez Revival via this Discord channel awaits (there are bi-weekly stitching circles you can attend from the comfort of your home)! 

Annnndddd, what’s even more special is THE Thobe that Muna is currently constructing. Trust us, you’ll want to hear about this incredible project (see this reel)!

You’ll hear about:

        >> 1:02: Muna and her family’s connection to Palestine

        >> 3:54: The woman who taught Muna: Teta

        >> 13:00: “The Thobe”

        >> 23:51: The Tatreez Revival community

        >> 35:06: Muna’s tatreez life lessons (fake it until you make it)
