In Korean Buddhist temples, you often see delicate wind chimes hanging from the eaves of the shrine. Each chime has a small bell and a wooden fish shape—mokeo—symbolizing wakefulness and mindfulness. The gentle sound invites us to stay present, just as monks do during daily practice.
Let’s reinterpret this beautiful tradition through jogakbo patchwork!

Goebul norigae, a small triangular shape decorated with colorful thread, is considered a good luck charm as the three points can cast out or ward off misfortune or evil spirits. Mothers make these and have their children wear them for protection. Norigae is a traditional Korean accessory for women that is tied on the waistband of a chima (skirt) or goreum (a single bowed sash of a jeogori, a short jacket). I made a few of these so I can wear them as an accessory or attach to my purse, to keep myself happy and lucky.

Saeksilnubi, or colored thread quilting, is a traditional Korean craft that combines two layers of fabric with cords made from 한지, hanji (Korean mulberry paper) and vibrant multicolored threads to create a quilted texture. The repeated lines, formed using 박음질, bageumjil (backstitch), create geometric patterns or nature-inspired motifs, resulting in a beautifully raised texture.
