Creative Sewing Techniques: Introduction to Bojagi

“We come to the end and it's time to say goodbye. We thank you for joining us on this journey through this exciting Korean technique. Now it's your turn to work on your project (or finish it, if you had already started it throughout the course). To guide you, we are going to summarize the main steps to follow to carry out this project. Remember to save photos of your process (from the sketches to the final result). We would like you to use them to explain what you did, how you did it and why. This will be very useful not only as a reminder of your process, but for others as well. So we can all progress together! It will also allow us to better guide you if you have questions. The design Make a sketch with the design of the work you want to do.

Selection and preparation of fabrics Choose the fabrics you are going to work with or paint the necessary fabrics with your own color palette. Next, prepare the entire fabric with the adhesive veil.

Then, remove the adhesive with alcohol, wash and iron. You already have your bojagi! If you make the bojagi by hand, you do not need to apply the sticky veil to the fabric or remove it afterwards. Once you have everything ready, upload your creations to the forum! To do this, click on “Create your project”. We will stop by the forum as soon as we can to comment and answer your questions. In the meantime, check out what others have done and leave comments. Collaboration between artists is the best way to progress, plus lots of practice! If you also want to share your work on Instagram, don't forget to mention our Domestika account and add #DesedamasDomestika . This will make it easier for us to find your posts. See you!”

“Final Project Now, we'll go over everything we've taught you throughout the course and give you some guidelines so you can easily tackle your final project. I started by explaining the history of bojagi, which is interesting because it's linked to the history of women, and then I discussed the best fabrics to work with when using this technique. Remember you can work with cotton organdy, which is easy to find and relatively cheap, but you know we also like to work with silk because, this way, with silk organza, we can create our own color palette.
