The workshop would **not** be developed for a boring tshirt. :-D I'm working on getting the equipment required for 15 participants. It's a short list of supplies for each person. Trying to get 4 or 5 sewing machines, too. Maybe a big plotter to print patterns on! I use an old 36" roll-feed plotter. Maybe HP has something new they want to demo for a few days.
I'll also keep the 30-minute presentation in the queue, but I shall abide by the decisions of the LGM demi-gods & goddesses regarding the presenters & schedule. - Susan > ------------------------------ > > Message: 2 > Date: Sat, 09 Apr 2011 11:17:43 +0200 > From: Femke Snelting <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [CREATE] Pre-LGM 2011 activities > To: [email protected] > Message-ID: <[email protected]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed > > Hello Susan > > > I would love to do a hands on workshop. > > Fantastic news! > > > Would need a big roll of 36" wide paper from a printshop, some > > tsquares/paper/pencils, tape measures, tables. > > Inkscape and python on participants laptop so we can write a 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. > > I am very curious about the process.
