Here is a fun blog with pics. Although videos are nice, I still favor print material. http://www.wabei-mono.com/blog/2008/...agi-revisited/

Very interesting, thanks for sharing with us. There are some beautiful examples out there.....I am toying with the idea of making some curtains in this style for a nursery/childrens' room we are setting up at home.....apparently Grandparents are supposed to do this.

Oh this is really great! I have been perusing images online. Lots of good examples on pinterest...even saw a great skirt. I'll definitely be trying this out in some form. I thought special fabrics were used but apparently quilting cottons and even batiks will give the translucent look when hung in a window? i saw tutorial but still can't quite figure out the type of seam used..particular for the ones w/ the black surrounding. It definitely does not look difficult though. Thanks so much for sharing!

For a French seam, you sew it wrong sides together, cut close to stiitching line, then encase the raw edge by sewing another seam. So let's say after the first seam, you cut to 1/8" from the stitching line, then you encase the raw edge and stitch 1/4" from the previous stitching line.
From my my understanding of Bojagi, you make one seam allowance 1/4" and one seam allowance 1/2". Stitch on seam line with right sides together. Press and turn under 1/2" seam allowance so it encases the 1/4" SA (and raw edge). Stitch close to turned under edge. This will show a stitching line on the right and wrong side. This is what I have gathered from watching a YouTube video.
