The conceptual 'Sewing Chameleon' has been designed by Minsong Cho as an ultra-modern take on the classic sewing machine that would provide makers, DIYers and avid sewers alike. The tabletop appliance works by having the garment or material being used scanned on the top to utilize a series of built-in ink cartridges to dye the thread the color required. This would enable the thread to hide in plain sight much like the chameleon (hence the name) and help to enhance a sewer's ability to craft high-quality garments, perform repairs and much more.
The conceptual 'Sewing Chameleon' sewing machine is finished in matte black and equipped with a series of intuitive controls for changing the needle speed, thread flow, lighting and pattern.
