Bojagi - Youngmin Lee's Blog

Well, what did I do last month? I looked through my postings and seems like I am having too much fun :) Last week, I injured my index finger and this kept me from so many things including sewing.... It's no fun at all! Yesterday, I finally able to do some work and finished this bojagi.

My friend Minjee who is going to give a lecture at the Getty center in May wanted to have a picture of this technique/ decoration. So I made one that she can use as a reference. small triangle shaped decoration is called, pine nut and made out of 1/2" square of fabrics. Fold square in to a triangle and fold from two sides to make this shape.

And secured using se ttam sang chim (3 decorateive stiches).

Red and dark green reminds me of my first hanbok when I got married. (This is a color combination for married woman, I guess)
