I really enjoyed helping boys, girls, women, men and many makers create innovative clothing at the swap Orama! These are some of the high lights from the makers I worked with.

skirts made from shirts, pants made into bags, and so much more!

What is it???? (Quote)
(Maker Faire is a two-day, family-friendly event that celebrates the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) mindset. It’s for creative, resourceful people of all ages and backgrounds who like to tinker and love to make things.)
Maker Faire was created to go with their magazine.

**(quoted text)
The first magazine devoted entirely to DIY technology projects, MAKE Magazine unites, inspires and informs a growing community of resourceful people who undertake amazing projects in their backyards, basements, and garages.

See you there!
