Saturday November 8
10:00 am - 4:00 pm
Instructor: Laura Henneberry
Materials Fee: $30 (paid directly to the Instructor)
Students: 12
In this workshop, you will be introduced to bojagi, traditional Korean wrapping clothes, and learn how to use traditional techniques to make your own. Bojagi are used to wrap, cover, and store everyday objects and can be constructed in a variety of different ways.
Jogakbo, patchwork bojagi, are wrapping clothes using remnant fabrics. In this workshop we will focus on two different seam techniques that are commonly used jogakbo: gareumso (open seam) and ssamsol (flat felled seam).
By the end of the workshop, each participant will have a solid understanding of these seam techniques and how to use them to create their own bojagi cloth using both Korean textiles and textiles commonly found in North America.
Participants are asked to bring the following items: Fabric scissors, quilting ruler for measuring (4.5" x 8.5" is a nice size but any size is fine), hera marker, pencil or chalk pencil, thimble (optional), fine pins (optional), needle threader (optional), and thread snips (optional).
