Korean Ramie Jogakbo (모시 조각보) Hand sewn Korean patchwork

Published 2021-08-20
A traditional Korean patchworking technique to conserve and use small scraps of fabric.
This craft was practiced traditionally with fine woven Ramie.
These pieces of Korean Ramie I salvaged from some old placemats.
I cleaned them thoroughly and took them apart into pieces.
I am using thick cotton thread and a hand made antler folder (traditionally this would have been bone but I only had antler available).

Jogakbo is literally a cloth made from pieces of cloth. It is said that in the old days when materials were scarce, cloth was also a very valuable material, and it is said that the leftover scraps of cloth were used to make furoshiki. It was often used to wrap quilts, wedding dresses, and wedding items. It is said that the tablecloth that covers the table is still well used. Various colors and patterns are mixed, and one of the crafts studied in Gyubang is to study this arrangement well to make it beautiful. It is the wisdom of life to use the leftover fabric from everyday life, so it was used by ordinary people. In fact, it is said that Jogakbo was never found among the royal objects.

Hi how did you know how to cut each Ramie rectangle size, so that they all fitted seamlessly together? Did you use a template that told you what width and height each Ramie was?
