Another great night at the Schuyler Makerspace!

Tonight we hosted our Introduction to Machine Sewing workshop, where participants learned the basics of using a sewing machine while creating their very first project: a beautiful reversible tote bag!

A huge thank you to Mindy Smith for sharing her talent, skills, and joyful spirit with our community. Your patience and passion made this class such a fun and welcoming experience for everyone.

That’s our second workshop of the month in the books, and we can’t wait to see what the rest of August has in store. Thank you to everyone who joined us! we love seeing our community learn, create, and grow together.

¡Otra gran noche en el Schuyler Makerspace!

Esta noche tuvimos nuestro taller de introducción de costura a máquina, donde los participantes aprendieron los fundamentos del manejo de la máquina de coser mientras realizaban su primer proyecto: ¡un precioso bolso reversible!

Muchísimas gracias a Mindy Smith por compartir su talento, sus habilidades y su alegría con nuestra comunidad. Tu paciencia y pasión hicieron de esta clase una experiencia divertida y acogedora para todos.

Ya hemos completado nuestro segundo taller del mes y estamos deseando ver qué nos depara el resto de agosto. ¡Gracias a todos los que nos acompañaron! Nos encanta ver a nuestra comunidad aprender, crear y crecer unida.

What an incredible way to kick off our August workshop series!

Today, 16 participants from Schuyler, Columbus, Clarkson, and Howells joined us for the first of our four floral arranging workshops. It was a joy to see everyone learning, creating, laughing, and sharing ideas together.

We hope you left inspired with a new skill to continue practicing—and who knows, maybe even turn it into a profitable side hustle someday!

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make today’s class such a fun and fulfilling experience. A special thank you to BeLovely by Kim Parsons for sharing your talent, passion, and expertise with our community. We can’t wait to see everyone back for the next workshop! ✨

Meet Mindy Smith, our talented sewing instructor! 🧵

Mindy’s love for sewing began at just 9 years old, and at 16 she received a sewing machine that she still uses to this day. Talk about a machine built to last!

Many in Schuyler may also recognize Mindy from her years as a middle school music teacher. She retired after teaching here more than 23 years ago, but her passion for sharing knowledge hasn’t slowed down one bit.

Now she’s helping others discover the joy of sewing, one stitch at a time. We’re so grateful to have her as part of our Makerspace community!
____________________________________________

¡Conozcan a Mindy Smith, nuestra talentosa instructora de nuestra clases de costura! 🧵

El amor de Mindy por la costura comenzó cuando tenía apenas 9 años; a los 16 recibió una máquina de coser que sigue utilizando hasta el día de hoy. ¡Sin duda, una máquina hecha para durar!

Es posible que muchos en Schuyler también reconozcan a Mindy por sus años como profesora de música en la escuela secundaria. Se jubiló tras más de 23 años de docencia aquí, pero su pasión por compartir conocimientos no ha disminuido en absoluto.
Ahora ayuda a otras personas a descubrir el placer de coser, puntada a puntada.
¡Estamos muy agradecidos de contar con ella en nuestra comunidad del Makerspace!
