Now that the congress is over, our T-shirt printing experts are making a short stop in Kiel, where we want to spread our knowledge of T-shirt production. So there will be a workshop on T-shirt design at the local Nähcafé. There we will turn your T-shirt idea, or one of our templates, into a finished printed T-shirt which you can take away with you straight after the course. We will show you the basics of the open source program Inkscape (Mac, Win, Linux) and convert a template (a photo or logo, say) into a vector graphic suitable as a motif.
While we cut the finished motif together on the cutting plotter, you will learn what to watch out for when plotting. After that you get an introduction to operating our textile transfer press — and your T-shirt is done!

We take binding registrations by telephone on 0431 / 65 99 67 57 or by email to workshops@lists.starship-factory.ch. The course runs from 4 participants. Anyone who already knows how to design T-shirt motifs with Inkscape can also simply drop in at the Nähcafé during the day on 9 January and have a T-shirt printed.
