MEET THE MAKERS

Handmade by 1 member of Association Timouzounin

Khadija Baousi

Khadija is a Tadula Zanfi native and was born in the village in the early 1980’s. Khadija is married with four children. While she never attended school, Khadija is currently enrolled in her association’s literacy classes. She learned how to weave from her mom and her sister and specializes in pile knot rugs. She works at the association only in her free time as there currently isn’t enough work yet. However, she hopes that in the future, the association will improve and be able to provide her and her fellow weavers with a better life filled with more work opportunities.
