Layered Light: Pojagi Patchwork Curtains 1F26
Age Group:
Adults
Create a linen Pojagi-style patchwork window hanging or curtain using sheer fabrics that softly filter and transform light within a space.
Inspired by the Korean textile tradition of pojagi, this technique uses felled seams to create a beautifully finished piece that is fully reversible and visually striking from both sides.
Students will explore color, transparency, and composition while designing a custom piece for their home. Design inspiration may include traditional pojagi layouts, Craftsman-era stained glass motifs, quilt-inspired geometric patterns, or original contemporary designs. The instructor will work individually with each student to help develop a design that complements and elevates their space.
Materials are included. Students will work with a selection of 100% natural ramie sheer fabrics and will be able to choose from a range of colors to create a personalized design.
