Welcome to the Quilting Board!
It's an old technique but I've never seen it before.

Got fabric?
I have got to try this, thank you for sharing!
This just looks like a fancy name for a flat felled seam that we learned in 4-H.

That's what I was thinking too..."Pojagi" must be Korean for flat felled seam. I've seen some absolutely gorgeous sheer curtains made using this technique. Thanks for posting a reminder of this beautiful technique BellaBoo.Originally Posted by Shelbie

before you speak THINK
T – is it True? H – is it Helpful? I – is it Inspiring? N – is it Necessary? K – is it Kind?
That was my first thought, also. I learned this is 4-H, too Shelbie.That's what I was thinking too..."Pojagi" must be Korean for flat felled seam. I've seen some absolutely gorgeous sheer curtains made using this technique. Thanks for posting a reminder of this beautiful technique BellaBoo.

I also have an eddres you can use if you need to contact me with questions or suggestions that relate to our community: patricej@quiltingboard.com
My thoughts exactly, I also learned this in 4-H and did the same stitching in my Home Economics class in High School.
With the replies, you can tell who came from a clothing background and who didn't. I also know this as a flat fell seam, and if you look at your jeans and some shirts, it's still a current technique.
Yep learned how to do a flat felled seam in Home Ec and 4-H over 60 years ago. They have just given it a fancy name, but it is the same thing. We had to measure every inch of that darned seam in Home Ec to be sure it was all even etc., and then sew it down. Didn't have the hemstitching item then, we learned to do it the hard way. Doubt if the younger ones have even heard of it the way they teach Home Ec or whatever they call it now.
