If you’re in the Boston area this Friday and are looking for some crafty fun, come to Ignite Craft! I’ll be giving a five-minute presentation on my sewing background and philosophies, a more extensive elaboration of this post from 2009. If you’re not familiar with Ignite Craft, here’s a little blurb from the site:
“Ignite Craft Boston 2 is an Ignite event with a crafty crowd. If you had five minutes on stage to talk about your crafty passion in Boston, what would you say? What if you only got 20 slides and they rotated automatically after 15 seconds? Around the world folks have been putting together Ignite nights to show their answers.
Come join the Boston area crafting community for Ignite Craft Boston 2 onFriday, January 13th, from 6:30pm to 9:30pm32 Vassar Street, room 123 (MIT Campus)Cambridge, MA 02140Doors open at 6:30 and presentations begin at 7:00pm.The event is free; however, due to limited space at the venue you must RSVP.”
You can read more about the event and RSVP at the Ignite Craft website. You can also see the lineup of speakers; it looks like a pretty awesome night for the crafting community. Videos of each presentation will be posted online afterwards so don’t worry, I’ll be linking that up on the blog.
Now to prepare myself for my speech and for sharing embarrassing pictures of myself from high school!
Congrats!!!! That sounds interesting. Of course, I can't be there but I'll be cheering for you! Let us know how it goes and with pictures if you can! Good luck!
Thank you, I'm excited and (I will admit) a little nervous! I'll see if my boyfriend can take pics before the event and I'll definitely post the presentation on here for all to see.
