Fatima Imharken was born in 1971 in Ikhef Nighir, a village in Ait Bouguemez (“the
happy valley”) of the High Atlas. After getting married, she moved to another village in the
valley called Imelghass, where she lives with her husband and four children. When she was
young, her mother provided her with the chance to discover the world of rug making. Today,
she is one of the members of Numedia Tabudrart Coop and she is willing to share her rugs
with anyone from any corner of the world.
