Todo list:

• Test all the sewing machines at the space and update the wiki
• * in progress, ongoing
• Arrange for repairs on any machines that aren’t working
• * in progress, ongoing
• Update signage on industrial machine (Liz has talked to Metal Janet & dbynoe)
• Start a sewing machine loaner program
• * Need to make a sewing kit with scissors, pins, etc. to go with the loaner.
• Figure out a better solution for scissor storage, then have scissors sharpened and/or get new ones
• * Current best idea is to cut some tags reading “fabric only” out of plywood or acrylic or something and tie them to the scissors
• Sort and evaluate fabric scraps
• Start a wishlist of supplies or equipment that would be useful
