Needle working (sewing, textiles, embroidery)

Founded in 1971, this association is Jerash’s oldest that began as a nursery and kindergarten but slowly evolved into a popular and helpful community-based organization with the active participation of 20 local women.

Guests can visit the sewing room to learn about the different Jordanian stitch styles and methods with a focus on the local stitch of Jerash. Visitors can also engage in traditional needlework experience or try out traditional wedding Thob (local dress). As well as direct purchase of a wide selection of authentic high-quality embroidered clothes.

The association can also offer a locally cooked meal featuring fresh ingredients sourced from the area. Including Mansaf and Magloubeh
