Studio Bricolage member Janet Groenert is leading this Arduino LillyPad workshop at the Textile Center!

Make your fiber art shine! Learn how to integrate working LED lights into clothing, art quilts or other fiber art creations. Using an affordable microcontroller called a Lilypad , you can make clothing with an energy of its own. This tiny computer and battery pack can be stitched in to your creations with conductive thread, letting you make soft circuits to control a tiny light show. Beginners are absolutely welcome; no computer programming or sewing experience necessary. Assembly and programming expertise will be available to help you troubleshoot. Class fee includes Lilypad and electronic components, you supply the clothing or fabric you would like to "light up". Materials fee $125 is included in your registration fee. Co-sponsored with the Science Museum of Minnesota. Register by calling 651-221-4511 (Science Museum) and let them know you are a Textile Center member to get the discounted rate. You cannot register through the Textile Center.
