This is the sorting room. Swappers would pass their clothes through the window to the sorters. The sorters separated everything by article of clothing. The runners would then take the piles of clothes into the main room.
The main room full of clothes and people.
This is the Sewing/ Screen Printing room. Swappers would bring their new found items and alter or decorate them here.
The fabric scraps table.
One of the screen printing stations.
Freshly printed clothes drying
This sweater was probably one of the coolest items.
Some fabric swatches I grabbed up from the sewing room.
My new Skippies. $3.50 shoes from K-mart made supercool by adding fabric. I'm still trying to decide if they need something. I was thinking of adding some eyelets or nautical themed buttons.
I spent most of the day helping out at the shoe and bag restyling table. Lisa the designer in charge gave me these white sandals to decorate.
I found this little purple bag. I added the butterflies and the chain.
Unfortunately I didnt get a chance to sew or screenprint anything. I also missed the fashion show. But I hope there is another swap soon, because it was alot of fun.
