Bojagi: The Art of Korean Textiles

Youngmin Lee

Description

Youngmin Lee gives you comprehensive step-by-step instructions on traditional bojagi techniques and materials, and provides a history of the art form in Korean culture – which dates back to the Joseon dynasty – where it continues to occupy a prominent place in the daily lives of Koreans.

Learn hand stitch techniques, seam finishes and decorative motifs on a range of materials from ramie, hemp and cotton to silk and naturally dyed, eco-printed materials. Youngmin introduces a variety of beautifully illustrated projects, with a modern twist – from gift wrap to wall hangings to cushions and clothing – whilst always being true to ancient Korean textile traditions.
