Long Distance Class... Bojagi Coaster



This is my second project 
of my long distance class;
a pair of Bojagi coasters.
Beautiful colour combination;
using Korean silk fabric- sukgosa.
I love them!



The Bojagi Coaster right below;
is hand sewn by my teacher, Youngmin Lee.



I really admire her hand sewn stitches;
a beautiful piece of work!
Have a wonderful day...

Long Distance Class... Bojagi Pincushion

My love for bojagi sewing...
brought me to find a Bojagi teacher.
It's my pleasure
to introduce you all,
my teacher, Ms.Youngmin Lee,
a talented Korean lady living in California, USA.
Her beautiful Bojagi works
can be found in her website!



So, and yes this is my first project
of my long distance class...
a Bojagi pincushion.
She introduced me to Korean silk,
which is also known as sukgosa.
I found that this fabric is much easier to sew
as compared to the ramie fabric.



This beautiful Bojagi pincushion
is sewn by Youngmin Lee.
An example which she sent to me!
By the way, there are a total
of four projects for this long distance programme,
so far I have completed two...
look out for the second project in my next post!

A design which I designed specially

More... Bojagi Sewing!


Yes... More bojagi sewing for me!
Practice & more practice, 
I am loving it...


I am experimenting different colour combinations
with the ramie fabrics!



I applied the 'Ssamsol' technique and
and sew with 'Gamchimjil' stitch...
These are the basic seam allowances
and korean stitches which I had learnt 
in my bojagi sewing class in Seoul, Korea.

Happy Sewing! my dear friends...
and have a wonderful week!
