LILYPAD BASICS
Sewing With Conductive Thread
The projects included in this kit use conductive thread to complete electrical circuits.
This section will introduce you to some basic sewing techniques as well as a few
special pointers for using conductive thread to build working circuits.
Even if you’re already familiar with using a needle and thread, this section may still
be useful to you, specifically where it pertains to sewing with LilyPad parts. Throughout
the guide you will find icons reminding you to use these techniques.

Securing Your Components
We recommend using a small dot of hot glue (preferred) or fabric
glue to attach each LilyPad piece to the fabric to keep it from moving
while you sew. Make sure not to accidentally seal up the holes in the
sew tabs.
