Fatma Hergli,
Embroidery Artisan

I went to school in 1985 to learn sewing and embroidery. I studied for three years in Hammamet, where embroidery is part of our traditions and daily life. From the beginning, embroidery stayed with me more than sewing. I liked sitting quietly with the work, repeating the same movements until my hands felt at ease. 

After finishing school and getting my diploma, I continued working from home in Hammamet. I never stopped. This work became part of my days, something I return to naturally, without forcing it. 

I truly love what I do. I put my heart into every piece I embroider. With time, my hands learned to be patient and precise. What I make today carries years of practice, but also the passion I have always felt for this work.
