In Tatreez & Tea: Embroidery and Storytelling in the Palestinian Diaspora , Wafa Ghnaim brings traditional Palestinian embroidery to life by resuscitating its roots as a powerful, provocative, and profound storytelling tool used by Palestinian women for hundreds of years to document their stories, observations, and experiences. Each chapter deconstructs the meaning of selected embroidery design from Wafa\'s family, preserved by her mother, Feryal Abbasi-Ghnaim. Wafa guides us through each thread, stitch, and skilled technique used by Palestinian embroiderers, further evolving her voice into a sacred journaling of oral histories passed on by her maternal ancestors and ultimately inspiring her confidence to reclaim her Palestinian identity in the diaspora. Wafa unravels the significance of each design by illuminating the experiences of her mother who learned embroidery from her mother and grandmother in mid-century Syria. Tatreez & Tea is far more than a book about traditional Palestinian costume, embroidery and meanings it s a resurrection of tatreez embroidery as a modern storytelling tool, one that guided Wafa as she found her way into the world and created a home in the Palestinian diaspora.
