Book Description
A creative guide to a unique and beautiful form of Korean art, steeped in ancient tradition. Bojagi are textiles that wrap, cover, carry, or store objects. Some are made from whole pieces of fabric and some are patched together from small scraps of cloth - they are a unique form of Korean textile art. The careful arrangement of shapes and colours shows an abstract composition which has made bojagi popular with textile artists and quilters today. In this book, experienced artist and educator 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.

A beautiful book that offers textile artists and quilters a range of ideas to use i their own work. As with the obsession with Shibori, this technique brings one of the East's most creative textiles to a Western audience for the first time.

Publisher: Tuttle Publishing
ISBN: 1462922007
Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en
Pages : 117
Book Description
A book that will make you see fabric in a whole new way! From its origins as wrapping cloths made from scraps of fabric to its place in contemporary textile art shows, Bojagi--the traditional art of Korean patchwork quilting--is a wonderfully versatile mode of expression that can transform a room or a wardrobe. Written by master instructor Choi Yangsook, Korean Patchwork Quilting teaches you step-by-step techniques through the art of assembling bits of lightweight fabric, by means of invisible seams, to create contemporary pieces for your home and life. The 37 projects in this book include: Hangings for walls and windows Exquisite table runners and table cloths Delicate bags and pouches Zakka ("miscellaneous") accessories Quirky jewelry pieces And more! This Korean folk craft has played an important role in Korean culture for centuries. The distinct "window pane" appearance of a Bojagi quilt often resembles a modern abstract painting or stained glass window, but can also be made of single-color fabric for an elegant look. Lessons, diagrams and templates, along with a few simple knotting and embroidery techniques, present a wide range of projects so that novices can try their hand and more experienced quilters can enjoy a satisfying challenge.
