My name is Rawiya Al Tamimi, graduated from Abu Dhabi Zayed University, with a Bachelors degree in Business Sciences – Marketing in June 2002.

I’ve learnt this wonderful art of embroidery through Mrs. Adrienne Brooks, who started established ZU Cross Stitch Club at Zayed University in March 2000.  We've started as a club of 4 member only, expanded till we reached around thirty five members!  Our club has been very active, and therefore participated in my events during Spring Festival, National Day, Fundraising Day, and Women Day.

Please meet Mrs. Adrienne Brooks
