Playing with electronics and textiles...

I bought yesterday a LilyPad TechStyles Kit from Lextronic.

This is a really simple kit with which you can easily start sewing some electronics.

I bought it because it comes with some handy parts, like the switch, the coin cell battery handler and some few LEDs.

Here is what you end up with after it’s completed (you can’t see well the blue LEDs turned on):

Turns out I spent quite a bit of time sewing :-)

I guess my skill will improve with time & training.

I will soon talk about about a homemade gift I started to work on today for an anniversay. This gift will be based on some scrapbooking stuff (not done by me! :-)) and will use some LilyPad stuff in order to enhance it.

More on that in a few days.
