There’s something magical about watching a piece of fabric come to life. My love for sewing began as a child, sitting beside my mother and watching her transform fabric and thread into something beautiful and meaningful. That early fascination stayed with me and became a lifelong source of creativity and joy.

After moving to Abu Dhabi, I bought a Pfaff sewing machine that is still with me more than 30 years later. Through sewing, I created clothes for myself, handmade pieces for my home, and found moments of calm and creativity throughout the different stages of life. Although family, work, and responsibilities sometimes pushed sewing into the background, my passion for handmade crafts never truly disappeared.

Over the years, volunteering within sewing, crochet, and knitting communities helped reconnect me with that creativity once again. Today, through ThreadWerk, I love teaching both children and adults, helping them slow down, create with confidence, and experience the joy of making something with their own hands.
