MEET THE MAKERS

Handmade by 2 members of Association Timouzounin

Bouchra Baousi

Bouchra is a Tadula Zanfi native and has lived in the village all her live. She attended school and completed up until the sixth grade. Several years after she dropped out of school, she enrolled in a local women’s club where she learned how to sew, embroider and weave. Today, she uses these skills to support herself and her family. She hopes that one day she’ll be able to start a family and live a happy life.

Khadija Kotaniu

Khadija is the president of the association and was born in Tedouit ZanFi in 1977, and is taught herself how to weave and develop skills in the craft, which is why she has wanted the products of their cooperative to be widely recognized in Morocco and famous worldwide. She hopes that she and all of the other women of the association will be able to earn sustainable income. She wants to create a new generation of weavers so that this craft may stay alive. Through the other women of the cooperative, she has learned new skills in pattern design.
