The latest project is completed! Since September, I've been working on and off on a Korean Hanbok to fit a four-year-old. (This is a practice run for an adult Hanbok I plan to make this year.) Last week, I finished it!
It's been a fun process, but long to be sure. I set a day to take pictures with a little girl so that I would be sure to finish it and not procrastinate. My scheme on myself worked.

"Olafina" was my first model. She was the first to try on the Jeogori. |
I finished the
Jeogori before Christmas and then took a break so I could work on Christmas gifts. In January, I started work on the
Chima. Sewing definitely wasn't difficult as it ended up being a simple apron-like pattern. Embroidery was also easy, just time consuming. :)

My next model - I never came up with a name for. I'm just gonna call her "Korean Teddy". She was able to try on the whole Hanbok before I brought to my last model. |
9:00 am Monday morning, I drove my younger sister to her housecleaning job and there was my model. A little sleepy, but up and ready for the day. She willingly got dressed up in the dress and put on the Jeogori even though, "I don't like the jacket." and put up with me taking some pictures of her. It was tons of fun. I'm excited to start my next project. I think it will take a bit more brain power though... :P
