In this class, you will learn about the traditional Korean patchwork technique, Jogakbo. With a traditional Korean fabric, Nobang, you’ll learn to make a colorful butterfly using a hand stitch called Gam-chim-jil (whip stitch). You’ll take home your own handmade butterfly at the end of the class. Whether you’re practiced at hand sewing or a complete beginner, this project is for you! 

This program is intended for older teens and adults. Registration is required and opens two weeks prior to the event on August 12, 2024.

This program is part of the Care & Repair program series, which is made possible thanks to support from Beyond the Page. See all upcoming programs at madpl.org/careandrepair.
