Makerspace workshop: Sew your own (data-fied) laptop or book sleeve
Presenter: Alexandra Wong
Learn how to sew your own data-fied laptop or book sleeve in the Markham Makerspace! Using the provided sewing machines and fabric, you will be guided through the process of sewing a padded sleeve to protect your belongings. The workshop will be co-led by Data Visualization and Analytics Librarian Alexandra Wong and you will learn how to sew on an additional front pocket to customize your sleeve with a (physicalized) data visualization based on your own screen or reading time data.
No prior sewing experience is necessary, and all materials will be provided, though participants are welcome to bring their own fabric if desired. Participants will take home their finished project.
