BLDG 61: Boulder Library Makerspace
The absolutely unstoppable @jenna.pich created ALL of the patches on this jacket for a music festival at BLDG61. If you`ve ever done any digital embroidery, you KNOW how much time this took. She also was amazing enough to share her process with us (swipe through all the photos to see all the design and thought that went into this!). Love it when a project comes together, and finished on time too!!
After a whirlwind tour of Columbus, one of our Creative Technologists has come down with something, so we are having to cancel Open Studio for today. Apologies for any delayed making- we hope to be back and better than ever soon!
Library Lodge is live!! We`re having the best time helping people make friendship bracelets, adding to our puzzle and relaxing in front of the fire @boulderlibrary
BLDG61 is closed this week as we are in the process of opening the Library Lodge- a one of a kind Colorado experience at the Public Library Association Conference in Columbus, Ohio. Stay tuned for pictures of the completed build later this week 🌲🌲🌲
Might still be snowing outside, but making a little propagation station on our laser cutter brings spring indoors 🌱
