The Garment District recently went to the Philly Swap, which was held at the Urban Outfitters headquarters this year. Not only did we get a tour of the grounds but we were able to help out with the swap. There were also many interesting tables at the swap such as jewelery making, silk printing and garment reconstruction. We were also lucky to see a presentation by one of our professors Kelly Cobb!

Tracy Weidman from Punkrocknits came to the University of Delaware to teach the students how to knit. This group was composed to mainly non knitters and Tracy Weidman was able to teach us the basics and how to create in knit form. Tracy is a dedicated artist from Pennsylvania who has turned her hobby into a career, where she travels from show to show selling her creative and funky accessory designs. She is now currently selling in three stores and looks forward to expanding her knowledge and items in the near future. Tracy will be coming back in late November to teach us how to knit in the round!

The Garment District thanks Tracy for coming and teaching us a new trick!

The Garment District took a trip to Philly for a day on the town. We traveled to Philly to attend and enjoy the Philadelphia Designers Market which we attend annually. This time around we did not sell our teams but we did enjoy the day by seeing the sights and enjoying the culture and excitement of the city. Our next Philly outing will be durning Spring semester if you missed this one!
