FUNDRAISING IMPACT
For our 2025 edition, we’re focusing our efforts on a family living in Dheisheh refugee camp. Ayham (pictured) is one of four children in the family we are supporting. His older brother, now 14, is at the prime age of children targeted by the Israeli military and detained under administrative detention. When the Made in Palestine team spoke with the children’s parents in late 2024, they shared their deepest fear — that their children could be hurt, detained, or martyred.
Like many families within the camp, they are facing significant financial and lifestyle challenges exacerbated by the pressures of military occupation and limited access to basic resources. The family believes in education as a means of safety, stability, and hope. This initiative aims to ensure that the children can have continued access to education through 2025–26 — covering school fees, supplies, and essential needs. By supporting The Time That Remains 2.0, you’re directly investing in these children’s futures — helping keep them safe, in school, and surrounded by care.
In 2025, we are committed to donating an additional 10% of all proceeds to First Nations Organisations.

Workshop
Tatreez Workshops with SAMARKAND
Hosted by Made in Palestine and the stitch intifada
Unassigned Gallery, Brunswick. Naarm
Sunday, 04 May 2025 - 5pm start
Thursday, 12 June 2025 - 6 PM start
All proceeds will be directly donated to Palestinian families in Gaza and the West Bank supported by Made in Palestine.
WORKSHOP DETAILS
This workshop will introduce you to the beauty of Palestinian embroidery and its rich cultural history. Palestinian embroidery, or Tatreez, is a symbol of resilience and identity, with designs reflecting the regions, traditions, and stories of Palestine.
In this workshop, you’ll hear from Samar Abedrabo, the founder of SAMARKAND, who will share insights into the deep cultural significance behind Tatreez designs. Based in Bethlehem, Samar will be joining this workshop digitally for her first workshop hosted in so-called Australia, with hands-on assistance from the Made in Palestine and Stitch Intifada teams.
In this session, you’ll be introduced to all the materials used in Palestinian embroidery, with a detailed explanation of their characteristics and how each one plays a role in creating the intricate designs of Tatreez. From selecting the right threads and fabrics to understanding the various types of needles, you’ll learn the essential techniques of embroidery. By the end of the workshop, you’ll take home a piece of embroidery created by you, and a deep appreciation for this cultural treasure.
