Learn how to work with conductive thread to sew your own circuits. In this workshop we will make a plush sparkle heart emoji with felt, LEDs and conductive thread. You will learn:
- tips and tricks for using the different types of conductive threads
- how to hack regular through hole components into sewable ones
- how to make a simple electronic circuit that lights up an LED
All materials will be provided, along with a print out to help you sew circuits in the future. Suitable for beginners and older children (11+). It will help if you know how to thread a needle and tie a knot.
Limited places available. Secure your slot by buying the kit in advance at the Hardware Hacking Village.
