Wow: Electronic embroidery

July 5, 2008 by Denise Felton 1 Comment

When I say electronic embroidery, I’m not talking about embroidery produced by a computer-driven machine. I mean embroidery that incorporates light and motion!

On the Craftzine site, Becky Stern says, “I’ll show you how to enhance your embroidery projects with illumination. I use conductive thread, a watch battery, and two light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to create a scene of a frog catching fireflies.”

See the video tutorial!
