Project: Sparkle Skirt
Make clothing that lights up when you move! This is a sewing
(no soldering) FLORA project using 12 color-changing NeoPixels
and the FLORA accelerometer/compass module. Spikes in the
sensor readings cause the pixels to flash and sparkle. The pixels
are sewn to the skirt's lining and are diffused by the outer layer
of fabric, whether it be a sheer overlay or a cutout lace design
( Figure 6-1 ).

If a skirt doesn't appeal to you, use this circuit and code on a
hat, a belt buckle, or even a blinky dog collar. You'll need these
materials (most are shown in Figure 6-2 ):
• FLORA main board
• FLORA accelerometer/compass module
• 12 FLORA RGB NeoPixels
