Some are elderly grandmothers; others are younger women doing embroidery to support their families.

Their embroidery is an expression of memories of their life in Ethiopia, the longing for Israel, and the challenging journey to their new homeland.The art of Ethiopian Jewish embroidery merges traditional values with modern Israeli life, reflecting the integration of their families into society.
