ARTIST PROFILE BOJAGI MAEDUB CARRY ME GALLERY CONTACT I usually sew everything by hand. Cutting out fabric pieces and sewing them together by hand takes much time and labor. However the joy of creating is a great reward for me. Sometimes I work with a sewing machine, but I just know that working by hand is more accurate and faster. I think the women who made a long time ago must have felt joy in forgetting their hard life and concentrating on their needlework. That is the same feeling that I have when I dedicate my time to creative works.
