About this title

Synopsis

If you're interested in interactive toys, light-up fashions, or smart accessories, this book is for you! Sew Electric is a set of hands-on LilyPad Arduino tutorials that bring together craft, electronics, and programming. The book walks you through the process of designing and making a series of quirky customizable projects including a sparkling bracelet, a glow in the dark bookmark, a fabric piano, and a monster that sings when you hold its hands. Play with cutting-edge technologies and learn sewing, programming, and circuit design along the way. It's a book for all ages. Explore the projects with your friends, your parents, your kids, or your students!

Review

Sew Electric combines craft, electronics, and programming and presents them in a wonderfully clear but whimsical way. The delightful projects should engage kids and adults of all ages. I wish I had this book when I was growing up, but I'm glad it's not too late for me to play!
--Joi Ito, Director, MIT Media Lab

I wish I'd had this book when I was young. I didn't figure out until college that designing and building software would satisfy the same creative urge as the sewing and art projects I did when I was younger. Bringing together craft and technology makes so much sense! Sew Electric will inspire the next generation of designers and engineers to dream big from early on.
--Jocelyn Goldfein, Director of Engineering, Facebook

With this book, Buechley and Qiu break new ground. One of the best educational resources I have seen in recent years - easy to understand, gorgeously designed, and showing a deep respect for young people's ideas and intellectual passions.
--Paulo Blikstein, Director of the Transformative Learning Technologies Lab, Stanford University
