After completing high school, Jamila enrolled in a sewing school in Marrakech for two years. After working in the city of Marrakech for a little while, she decided that it would be better to return to Tameslouht to begin sewing. Given the proximity of her work shop to Redwan, she heard about him starting a cooperative and decided to join and she continues to work with Cooperative Liberty to this day. When she isn't working at the cooperative, she can be found teaching at a local association in Tameslouht.
Hassan was born the town of Tameslouht in 1968 and has lived in the town his entire life. He is married and has two children who are currently in school. Weaving runs in Hassan's talented family. His dad was an expert weaver and was widely known as one of the best weaving teachers in the Tamelslouht region. So it was no surprise that Hassan wanted to carry on the family tradition and continue weaving throughout his career.
