Lotus Leaf Bojagi Bojagi

Life gets busy always and if I don't do the things that I love, I will
regret at the end of the day. So better get busy and enjoy my life!
Recently I got a request from an art lover. She wants me to make lotus
place mats and matching napkins. I used Moshi(Korean linen) for this
lotus leaf. Moshi is very fun material to work with because of the
texture and stiffness but at the same time it's a bit tricky to handle.
Korean people say that treat moshi as you treat your baby.
Moshi
comes in very narrow width such as 12-13 inches maximum. So when I made
this lotus leaf, I had to sew 2 pieces together to get enough width. I
used Ssamsol(french seam) to construct this piece. To express the veins,
I used pinching technique. Since I have to make 10 more lotus leaves, I
will have a chance to take pictures of these techniques.
