Introduction to E-Textiles
This workshop is an introduction to e-textiles and focuses on integrating ordinary electronics into fabric. We will modify electronic components and sew them together using conductive thread. You will take home a plush firefly that lights up in the dark.
No prior experience of electronics or sewing required. All materials are included. Class size is limited to 10 students. To reserve your spot call or visit FabLab Tacoma.
