Gireogibo
2024, Korean silk, 42 x 42 cm
Gireogibo traditionally wraps a pair of wild geese made from wood, a symbol of neverending love in Korean weddings. I applied a satteugi decorative stitch and a double decorative back stitch for the decorative parts. Instead of the usual thin thread, I used a unique thick thread. I like how it turned out.
