BE EXCELLENT and DONATE! support is a reality of a space but the spiritual and educational growth is what is happening and money well it is paper only.

Sewing...

We have several sewing machines at Noisebridge.

Juki M2416, five spool chain stitch with three thread overlock. This is for woven fabrics. You can ask for assistance and a tutorial anytime. A very good machine!

2015 Upgrade

As a spin off of the Noisebridge Booth for Maker Fair 2015 project the sewing area is going to be upgraded. Recently people have started maintaining and using the sewing area regularly again. The casework being built for Maker Faire 2015 will actually be designed for the sewing area so that after the show it may form the basis of the sewing area upgrade project.

I have started collecting inspiration images that will be used to design the cabinets and new sewing area. This project is currently in the conceptual design phase, so if you have ideas please add them here. Not pictured are ideas for storage of donated materials and fabrics. I think there should also be some clothes rods for hanging up projects and materials. Maybe a trip to a fabric store(s) could help.

Knitting/Fiber Arts Update [8/16/2015]

Hey all! theroguemuppet here. Literally just visited Noisebridge for the first time today- really passionate about the fiber arts (knitting, crocheting, weaving, spinning, felting, etc.), have been teaching for a few years now, any interest in "Learn How to Knit" gatherings or knitting social groups, I'm totally down. Ping me on here or shoot me a line @ (602) 550-3349.
