- Women in Sana’a seeking practical sewing skills
- Worth noticing
- The homepage describes a former garage in Sana’a turned classroom, with basic sewing scheduled three mornings each week.
Field notes
The site follows the project from the first village sewing machines in Ibb to a restart in Sana’a, where supervisor Shyma’a converted her home's former garage into a classroom. Its timeline reports a six-week class of about 17 women; basic sewing meets Monday, Wednesday and Saturday from 10 to 12. Jewelry-making is listed as paused for now, distinguishing the active schedule from the project's broader history.
