Valentine's Day Sewn Circuits Intro

A2 is committed to offering free, and low cost, programming to be accessible to all. This is why we're offering this workshop for FREE to participants. We hope you will consider making a suggested donation which is comfortable for you and your budget to allow us to offset the price of supplied materials and to pay our instructors.

An introduction to the process of making wearable electronics. Learn how to combine sewing and lights to make a fabric patch that can be worn or displayed, or gifted to a Valentine (just sayin).

There is no materials fee for this class. All materials will be included.

• No soldering at all, some debug skills learned, and fun LED lights as part of your graphic design. (We'll have a few designs to demonstrate if you're feeling stuck).
• Take home a felt fabric design and a 3.5" embroidery hoop, and plenty of ideas for your next project.

3.5" embroidery hoop, needle, thread, LEDs, battery, sketching template

Aut a notebook and pen or pencil for brainstorming some ideas or images of your favorite constellation.

Open to all ages who are OK with sharp sewing needles and colorful embroidery thread. And tiny colorful lights.

Mike Beach is an Electrical Engineer, Asylum member since 2012, has taught and co-taught several courses, cares more about how the electrons are feeling than programming, really likes learning about and using all kinds of sensors, and just can’t stop showing how to use that oscilloscope to help you debug (just ask Kevin), and is an active participant and mentor at the Circuit Hacking night held at the Asylum every Wednesday.
