I would like to put together a roster of people who are willing to teach for free to benefit MakeICT. We are planning to open up the educational wing ahead of the industrial wing so that we can start to run classes again.
With the move and COVID, the space could use an infusion of cash so that we can open in a timely manner. I am willing to run some classes to benefit the space and I am guessing that I am not the only one who would like to help out in that way.
We are looking for classes that would have a low overhead cost and/or a cost that people could justify paying extra for.
I am thinking things like
Inkscape
Fusion 360
Origami
Stamping
Screen printing
Maskmaking
etc
(Give me some good ideas!)
Oooo I would totally sign up for house dress. I should draw you the pattern my Mom made for a tunic with kind of kimono sleeves. She made the pattern from newspaper and it would be easy to make, I think.
No I’m a commercial subscriber to Tailornova it’s a subsidy of Bootstrap Fashion. You use their elements to build a look, then plug in your clients measurements and it spits out a pattern. You can then download the DXFs and minipulate them or print them in large format. I’ve had Valentina and Seamly forever and a day but haven’t made the time to play with either one of them.
I would be down. I think offering a home maintenance/home repair classes to the public would be great for the community. We should look into advertising these types of classes in the Wichita’s parks and rec activity guide that is offered quarterly.
