Femke et al., I would love to do a hands on workshop. Would need a big roll of 36" wide paper from a printshop, some tsquares/paper/pencils, tape measures, tables. Inkscape and python on their laptop so we can write a basic python extension, and I would do the programming as well so we'd need access to a projector & screen for my laptop. We can go from pencil to code in 2 to 3 hours, or even less. I can make a guy's garment as the example. Might be nice if we had a sewing machine or two plus muslin or bed sheets, scissors, chalk and thread. I can come early to make arrangements and source the equipment. I'll contact Simplicity, Burda, Bernina, etc. to see if there's a possible fund source or if they'd lend us machines (they do this for Swap-O-Rama-Rama). This would be more fun than a presentation anyway.
