A traditional Moroccan basket known as a "tbaq." This basket is handmade using a local dried grass that is wound with colorful wool thread into one-of-a-kind designs. Originally these baskets were used for bread making but nowadays they can be functional or decorative.
Born in 1978 in Talsint, Fadila never attended school. Fadila learned how to make baskets through her time working with the association and is currently learning how to make rugs. Additionally, Fadila works at the local women’s center and makes sweaters at home on a sweater-making machine. With the earnings from her basket sales she buys more material for her various crafting projects.
