Pojagi is the ancient Korean textile art of making wrapping cloths. Some were custom made with special cloth and others were pieced together with scraps left over from sewing clothes. Today these techniques are used to make many different things.
The name of my sudio is Epida Studio and Designs. I have been asked about the word “Epida” (pronounced EE-pid-ah). It is a made up word inspired by the Korean word for beautiful. It’s my tribute to the Korean culture and beauty that influences many of my designs.
No, I am not Korean and am not related to anyone with Korean heritage. In 2009, my husband was offered a job in Korea, so we packed up four small kids and moved there for two years. It was a wonderful experience and we love the country. It was during that time I began my study of pojagi.
