We will provide materials, but… your own creativity has no boundaries. Feel free to bring buttons, googly eyes, tiaras, and especially old single socks are a good starting point. Pictures below give an example of the puppets.

Wed. 08/03/2022 from 7:30 – 9:00pm (see the calendar on our web page)

Children accompanied by a parent are welcome.

Visit us at Noche de Fiesta tonight 7/23, 6-9:30PM, Lexington St. Framingham

Saxonville Mills Open Studios

Framingham Makerspace will be participating in the Saxonville Mills open studios on Friday evening (5/13) and Saturday (5/14). Friday evening hours are 5-9PM and Saturday hours are 12-5PM. Come by and see our new expansion space including Fiber Arts Lab.

Progress on expansion space

We’ve been making good progress on the expansion space buildout. All the sheetrock is up (except one tiny corner). Everything except the top three feet around all the pipes has been taped and mudded. Doors are hung but temporarily removed for mudding and painting. Electrical is moving along.

What is fiber art? Anything to do with yarn or fabric: sewing, knitting, crocheting, embroidery, spinning, and much more! Come learn about our existing fiber art capabilities, how we plan to expand in the coming year, and all the kinds of cool stuff you can make with both new and old technology.

We will demonstrate our sewing and embroidery machines. Current members can also complete a checkout to use
the equipment.

We’ll also discuss our expansion plans for next year and our new fiber art lab space, which will include a Kniterate fully automated knitting machine (like a 3D printer for fabric!); a long arm quilting machine for creating large quilts; and spinning and weaving tools.
