IDNA Ladies’ Association started in 1998, this group is located in the village of Idna, southwest of Hebron. The village is quite isolated and suffers not only from frequent Israeli blockades of major roads, but also from the construction of the Separation Wall. Embroidery is done by 50 women; four do the sewing and there are four paid staff at the centre. The Association has a savings scheme allowing any members to borrow money. Idna’s products are known for incorporating the beauty of Palestinian embroidery in modern-day, practical items. They are made with impeccable sewing and embroidery skills that women have honed over years.
