Happy #InternationalWomensDay. Today, our predominantly female crew led the #RoyalInstitution #Engineering Masterclass at #WMGwarwick

We explored #Manufacturing & Assembly creating beautifully framed patterns using @turtlestitch

There are 4 picture frames shown, and in each frame is a stitched patern.

a sheet of paper with red writing on it. The writing shows the costs involved in making a product.

Its lovely to see our students graduate this afternoon, and a great opportunity to catch up with teaching colleagues.

Yesterday I attended #BarCampLondon for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed it. There were many interesting sessions, creating patterns using p5.js, Savannahhq.com looking at the health of online communities and lots more.

I gave a presentation on #OpenSource #Embroidery, looking at @turtlestitch and @inkstitch

The first screen from the p5.js talk, showing a description of the p5 javascript library, along with a picture of a group of people standing on a lawn.

The grid of talks at Barcamp London, along the top are the times of the sessions, and down the left hand side is the list of rooms. In the grid are postcards giving descriptions of all the talks.

A pattern stitched with white thread onto a blue background. The pattern is made up of lots of triangles pointing into the centre.

A pattern stitched in white thread onto yellow felt. It consists of a square and then a series of triangles pointing into the centre to make a four pointed star.

In today's #RoyalInstitution
workshop... Where is #Engineering? #PhilJemmett
asked students to create a smart city.

I loved the sound activated street lights, they light up when they hear your footsteps.
