Korean Patchwork Quilting 37 Modern Bojagi Projects

From its origins as wrapping cloths made from scraps of fabric to its place in contemporary textile art, Bojagi-the traditional art of Korean patchwork quilt art-is a wonderfully versatile mode of expression that can transform a room or a wardrobe. Written by master instructor Choi Yangsook, Korean Patchwork Quilting takes you step-by-step through the art of assembling bits of lightweight fabric, by means of invisible seams, to create contemporary pieces for your home and life. Projects in this book include: Hangings for walls and windows. Table runners and table cloths. Bags and pouches. Zakka (miscellaneous things) accessories. Quirky Jewelry. And more! This Korean folk craft has played an important role in Korean culture for centuries. The distinct 'window pane' appearance of a bojagi piece often resembles a colorful modern abstract painting or stained glass window, but can also be made as a single-color piece 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.
