Key Information Sets (KIS) are comparable sets of information about full- or part-time undergraduate courses and are designed to meet the information needs of prospective students.
All KIS information has been published on the Unistats website and can also be accessed via the small advert, or 'widget', below. On the Unistats website you are able to compare all the KIS data for each course with data for other courses.
The development of Key Information Sets (KIS) formed part of HEFCE's work to enhance the information that is available about higher education. They give you access to reliable and comparable information in order to help you make informed decisions about what and where to study.
The KIS contains information which prospective students have identified as useful, such as student satisfaction, graduate outcomes, learning and teaching activities, assessment methods, tuition fees and student finance, accommodation and professional accreditation.
Personal Tutor At the start of your degree, you will be assigned a Personal Tutor who will remain with you throughout your studies to help you in three important areas: supporting your academic progress, developing transferable skills and dealing with any welfare issues.
Delivery of the course In your first and second years, the course is delivered as lectures, small group workshops, laboratories, computer-based activities, enquiry-based learning and tutorials. A strong emphasis is placed on design and research project work in your third and fourth years respectively
Practical work forms an integral part of the School's degree programmes. Laboratory classes are embedded within modules in years 1 and 2 and used, not only to develop your experimental practical skills, but also to reinforce concepts introduced in lectures or to explore a particular phenomenon. Many of these classes take place in the Dearden Laboratory created in 2011.
Tutorials/personal tutorials run alongside the lecture course, addressing any individual problems you may have and allowing you to consolidate the lecture material, as well as test your understanding through problem-solving exercises. Your Personal Tutor is assigned to you at the start of your course and remains with you until graduation, helping you in three important areas: supporting your academic progress, developing transferable skills and helping with welfare issues.
Enquiry Based Learning (EBL) provides an environment where your learning process is driven by enquiry. The lecturer's role is purely as a facilitator. Typically a group activity; this requires working in a team and you can be assessed in a variety of ways: in either a group or individually, by written reports and sometimes as a presentation. EBL will give you a research-orientated approach to a problem, and has a synergy within research-led institutions like the University of Birmingham.
Plant design is critical to chemical engineering and this is taught through the design project. The projects are run in collaboration with industrial partners and taught by small group tutorial consultations where emphasis is on developing your design and communication skills to solve problems. If you are an MEng you will undertake a research project. You can choose from a wide range of topics and will be supported by an academic whose research interests have lead to that project being offered.
The course modules are taught through lectures, tutorial problem classes, laboratories and/or project work. Assessment methods used are examinations, written assignments and laboratory and project reports. The balance of examinations and coursework for an individual module reflects the nature of the subject being covered. Some courses are evaluated purely by examination while others only by coursework. A strong emphasis is placed on project work in the third and fourth years. Examinations are taken in May and June.
We place strong emphasis on providing prompt and informative feedback on all pieces of work that you submit during your studies. Feedback comes in a variety of forms, including written feedback on pieces of assessment, class feedback sessions and one-on-one discussions with your tutors. In all cases, the feedback will highlight the good points as well as those areas that require more attention.
During your first year the University will require you to undergo a formal 'transition' review to see how you are getting on and if there are particular areas where you need support. This is in addition to the personal tutor who is based in the School and can help with any academic issue you encounter.
At the beginning of each module, you will be given information on how and when you will be assessed for your particular programme of study. You will receive feedback on each assessment within four weeks, so that you can learn from and build upon what you have done. You will be given feedback on any exams that you take; if you should fail an exam, we will ensure that particularly detailed feedback is made available to enable you to learn for the future.
Your career prospects on graduation from our School will be outstanding. The chemical, pharmaceutical, oil, energy and food industries are amongst the wealthiest and can afford to pay top salaries to high-flying graduates from accredited courses such as ours. Feedback shows that 93% of students on this course go straight into work and/or further study after graduating and those in work are, typically, earning in the range £25,000-£29,000 pa six months after graduation. Of those working, 95% are doing professional/managerial jobs.
Manufacturing and other areas of science and technology, such as environmental protection or sustainable energy, also have employers with large power bases where great careers can be forged. Other areas that favour the skills you will acquire are finance, law and marketing as well as teaching and/or research; all vital areas of society requiring input from the finest young minds.
Superb opportunities exist for you to gain industrial experience before you graduate and a rich vein of expertise will be available for you to tap into to help you to find employment:
At School-level, you can opt to add a year to your programme, whatever the course you are studying, and spend this time on placement in industry. You will gain relevant work experience, and earn money putting into practice the skills and knowledge gained from your degree. Students on placement get involved in serious projects which ask searching questions that require good engineering answers - and which often lead to sponsorship and/or the offer of a graduate job. On successful completion of a placement in industry organised by the School, and success in your studies, you will be awarded the Certificate in Industrial Studies to add to your degree and improve your employability prospects.
At University-level, our unique careers guidance service is tailored to academic subject areas, offering a specialised team (in each of the five academic colleges) who can give you expert advice. Our team sources exclusive work experience opportunities to help you stand out amongst the competition, with mentoring, global internships and placements available to you. Once you have a career in your sights, one-to-one support with CVs and job applications will help give you the edge. In addition, our employer-endorsed award-winning Personal Skills Award (PSA) recognises your extra-curricular activities, and provides an accredited employability programme designed to improve your career prospects.
Whichever of the above forms of careers guidance, or combination of such, you select you will find your prospects for employment after graduation considerably enhanced. If you make the most of the wide range of careers advice we can offer, you will be able to develop your career from the moment you arrive.
Emma Roberts, who studied one of our courses, said: 'Both my work and placements helped to put my studies in context and make informed career decisions.' 'The course I took gave me an excellent foundation for a career in chemical engineering; good lab work in the first few years really put the lectures in context. An emphasis was placed on how engineering applies to the real world, which was exactly what I was looking for in a degree course. Industrial experience taught me a lot about time management, working in a team and being flexible; and the course gave me an excellent foundation for my career with BP.'
Preparation for your career should be one of the first things you think about as you start university. Whether you have a clear idea of where your future aspirations lie or want to consider the broad range of opportunities available once you have a Birmingham degree, our Careers Network can help you achieve your goal.
If you make the most of the wide range of services you will be able to develop your career from the moment you arrive.

What happens when you run the script? The RPMs should be in the working directory unless you get an error output.
Livna should have RPMs if you're interested in those.
I used the tutorial on the redblog.
The .rpm's did no download into the working directory. Is there a way to wget these? or other methods?if all went well, on an i386 target there should be ATI-fglrx-8.29.6-1.fc6.i386.rpm, ATI-fglrx-control-panel-8.29.6-1.fc6.i386.rpm, ATI-fglrx-devel-8.29.6-1.fc6.i386.rpm, and kernel-module-ATI-fglrx-KERNEL-VERSION.fc6-8.29.6-1.fc6.i386.rpm in the working directory. These RPMs can then be installed. During the RPM install process it will run aticonfig --initial, but if this is a fresh FC6 install one more step is needed. Ensure that the below segment is found in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, otherwise Mesa will be used when restarting X. If this portion is not found in your X configuration, add it:

The script runs fine, it just doesn't add the rpm's.
How do I get the livna?
I saw it mentioned elsewhere. And do I need to do anything else with them to compile it with ATI?
Are you using --buildpkg Fedora/FC6 ? The RPMs should be there unless there is an error or something else in the output.
Thanks for your help michael, it has been a long time since I have used Fedora. I didn't realize the --buildpkg was part of the command. I ran it and got the following error.

Last edited by hookooekoo; 10-31-2006 at 07:02 PM. Reason: Remove garbage
You need to install qt-devel (v3.3 not Qt 4).
Also, grab the 8.30.3 driver otherwise the 8.29.6 virgin driver won't work on FC6 final. See: http://www.phoronix.com/redblog/?p=blog&i=NTU1MA If you use the 8.29.6 driver you will need to use that install script at Redblog but with 8.30.3 it should work fine with the original driver using --buildpkg Fedora/FC6.
Thanks again. I would know how to do this in gentoo, but not red hat.
Do i need to remove QT 4 first too? and what is the easiest way to do that.
Qt4 can remain installed, but Qt 3.3 and qt-devel are requirements.
Can be handled via yum or graphically from Applications > Add / Remove
Yah I ran the Yum command and that installed it. Now I am getting another error.
Ok so I am installing rpm-build now, gg error message reading comprehension.Code:install: cannot stat `fireglcontrolpanel': No such file or directory Package build failed!

Well if you could redesign any water route(s) in Unova, which ones would you change and what changes would you make?
I don't really think many of Unova's water routes need redesigning. None of them are particularly long or boring, that's more of a problem with other regions. Maybe Rt. 21, which is slightly too mazelike for my liking. And not because it's confusing, moreso because the path snakes all around the route before you reach Seaside Cave.
I didn't think the water routes connecting places like Cianwood and Olivine were too confusing. The areas connecting Lilicove, Sootopolis, Mossdeep, and the like were (relatively) simple if you went in a relatively straight path. I only felt lost when I tried to explore for items/trainers. I think that's more a function of the lack of "landmarks" at sea as opposed to during land travel.
Oh, look! I wrote a fanfic! Weak (One-Shot. Rated G). Can Iris convince Bianca that she can't just avoid her problems?
And another one: Mischief (One-Shot. Rated G). A little fun for October.
I don't blame you there. Most of the more open water routes tend to be harder to navigate.
Yeah, but that's exactly the problem, and one of the major reasons water routes need lots of landmarks in general. I like water routes, but when they're too open and empty they get confusing and annoying to explore.
More of a landmark than a route, but I'd change Seaside Cave to make it far more... substantial. As far as I remember, I spent about two entire minutes exploring the place then I moved on. As much as I think Unova's got enough cave locations anyway, I wish that they did something unique with it to make it stand out.
eyemedia - Bloody Purity
xi - FREEDOM DiVE↓
It's not even the fact they are harder to navigate. I just think it takes forever to get from point A to point B when you are trying to scale a vast water area littered w/ trainers and rocks as fast as you can because you don't want to deal with it.
It's more the frustration that I want to get out of there and get it over with but I have to get it done then so I don't have to get it done later.
But GF hates me -___- Though they made me feel better about them w/ BW/BW2 because they didn't really have any that you HAD to travel.
I prefer having more pre-E4 content. Once you beat the champion there's no longer a sense of urgency to get anywhere. There's no goal at the end except maybe a legendary. If Route 17/18 were incorporated into the main game, we'd probably have a few Plasma battles and a story event at the P2 Lab. Now its just a few trainers and items. It just feels so empty by comparison. Of course there's the thrill of exploring, but with the story and other elements on top, you can certainly do more with an area before the E4 than after it.
Maybe I'm thinking too hard about this, but could the P2 Laboratory be based off of Plum Island? Plum Island isn't in Manhattan but it's in eastern New York. It's a secluded laboratory that has an undisclosed purpose. Plum Island apparently conducts tests on animals while the P2 Lab is the place where Genesect was resurrected (testing on Pokemon). Coincidence?
Well, we're going into the realms of personal preference here, but for me, the best thing about defeating the E4 is being able to access all of the areas you couldn't before the E4. Fortunately B/W2 had quite a lot of it, but even some locations had some storyline-driven occurrences, e.g. battling N in his Castle, then fusing Kyurem and Zekrom/Reshiram.
The areas which weren't story-driven were still quite nice to explore anyway, mainly the south-eastern portion of the region. I still explored it as thoroughly as I did in B/W1.
eyemedia - Bloody Purity
xi - FREEDOM DiVE↓
I'm glad that they left out a lot of areas to explore. But GF should've made some changes in most of the areas. Aside from the trainers, they're identically the same as before.
:: Dragonspiral Tower could've had a bit more wreckage inside, which should've altered the path towards the top.
:: The puddles within the Moor of Icirrus, and Route 8 could've at least expanded, while some went dry.
:: Pinwheel Forest, especially the forest path should've changed a lot and should've had more explorable areas.
:: Routes 1-3... I really don't expect much changes in these routes. Same with the Dreamyard.
:: Wellspring should've had a least one or two more new cave openings.
:: Currents within Routes 17 and 18 should've at least changed.
.: So, what's next? | Edit by me, do not steal. :.
I agree about Dragonspiral Tower.
I love that place, but I think there was some missed opportunity for improvement when BW2 came around.
Interesting idea, but IDK that it would be necessary.
Now this I like, they could've made this a seasonal thing, like it would freeze over in the Winter and dry up in the Summer.
I don't think they'd need to do anything too drastic here. Maybe at most, the bridge on the main path breaks so you have to go down the path towards Rumination Field and then use Surf to go back to the forest path, but other than that, its' pretty much fine.
For the Dreamyard, they could've collapsed the area a bit more making it more mazelike.
Maybe, but Wellspring Cave isn't too interesting either way, so I don't really care what they do here.
The path through Rt. 17 and 18 is fine the way it is, I'd rather they not mess with it.
My shinies are not for trade or cloning.
Shinies are not listed in order, for example the last shiny on the banner is not always the latest shiny I've obtained.
Banner 1 made by Light Venusaur, thanks ^_^
While we're on the topic of routes they should've changed, Route 9 seems like it should've had more done to it. I mean, it's got a department store just sort of thrown into the middle of the route, you'd have thought after two years other buildings would've been developed around it.
I agree. Route 9 has just been one of those Routes you pass through and were like "um...k" and that's it. It was very small and didn't have a lot of 'meat' to it, so to say.
Also, with Challenger's Cave as well. I was actually excited to see the changes that they would make to it with the release of Black and White 2, only to find out it was blocked
You mean like changing the currents' direction? I'd rather they not even mess with that. The original design suits its purpose quite well, really, P2 Laboratory and that one part of Rt. 18 with the Double Grass are both appropriately difficult to access, so it's fine. The only part I can see changing is them reversing the way you travel through Rt. 18, and even then, it'd be too minor a change and too difficult to implement to be worth it.
Exactly, it, along with Route 5, 11 and 16 seem like they're only filler routes, and nothing more. Although, Route 11 isn't as bad as other three IMO.
There wasn't really a whole lot going on in it originally, so I'm not that fussed that it's gone.Also, with Challenger's Cave as well. I was actually excited to see the changes that they would make to it with the release of Black and White 2, only to find out it was blocked

Lynn wins fourth, Freese homers for Cards
Righty allows one run over eight innings to remain unbeaten
CHICAGO -- The Cardinals had been here before.
Fresh off consecutive walk-off losses, St. Louis led the Cubs by one in the sixth inning Wednesday after right fielder Carlos Beltran's go-ahead double off Cubs starter Chris Volstad.
Cardinals third baseman David Freese made sure another close game wouldn't be played, following Beltran's knock with a two-run home run and later adding an RBI double to send St. Louis to a 5-1 win over the Cubs.
Cardinals right-hander Lance Lynn earned the win while continuing his impressive start to 2012 with eight strong innings, allowing one run on six hits while striking out seven.
"It was good to see a good offensive day and guys put some things together," manager Mike Matheny said. "Big day for David, Shane [Robinson] had a nice day and, obviously, what Lance was able to do sets the tone for everything."
The eight innings Lynn threw were the most of his career and the longest outing by a Cardinals starter this season. The right-hander was strong until the end, retiring his last 11 batters and recording 15 of 24 outs on ground balls.
"It's a good thing to get a lot of ground balls, especially with the balls they hit in the air they put some good swings on and were able to get some extra-base hits," Lynn said. "It was good to get some ground balls and get some easy outs."
Cubs first baseman Bryan LaHair led off the fourth against Lynn with his second game-tying homer in as many days, but that was all the Cubs could muster.
The only other time Lynn faced adversity was in the fifth inning after a leadoff double by Darwin Barney, who advanced to third on a groundout. The Cardinals' right-hander walked David DeJesus to put runners on the corners, but struck out Tony Campana and got Starlin Castro to ground out.
"He has a heavy fastball and was able to pitch in and out with it and made the pitches when he had to," Cubs manager Dale Sveum said. "We had a chance there and he made some good pitches and struck Campana out, and that was a big one because we could've taken the lead there and changed things around. He's done a great job up to this point."
"Whenever he did get in a little bit of trouble ... he just made better pitches," Matheny said. "The leadoff double could've turned into much more and he ended up really only getting hurt with the one fly ball, which really wasn't a bad pitch, either. All in all, he really stayed locked in mentally."
Lynn, who came into Spring Training prepared to be a reliever and moved into the rotation after an injury to Chris Carpenter, remained unbeaten at 4-0 and lowered his ERA to 1.33.
"He did great," Beltran said. "He's been pitching great for us. Throwing pitches for strikes, getting ahead of hitters. And when you're capable of doing that, then you have other pitches to play around."
The Cardinals' bullpen -- which surrendered walk-off hits the previous two days -- pitched a scoreless ninth to preserve Lynn's victory and help St. Louis avoid what would have been its first series sweep of the season.
Cardinals shortstop Rafael Furcal led off the sixth inning with a single and advanced to second on a groundout. After outfielder Matt Holliday flew out, Beltran lined his tiebreaking double.
Beltran's knock broke a string of 18 hitless at-bats, the second-longest skid of his career. Beltran's only longer slump came from May 8-14, 2000, when he went 22 at-bats without a hit while with Kansas City.
"In this game you're going to go through a lot of ups and downs," said Beltran, who also stole two bases. "The main thing is you have to stay positive and continue working and things are going to change. I was happy that we won there, we were able to win this one and have a day off tomorrow."
Freese followed Beltran's double with his fourth home run to give the Cardinals a sizable cushion.
"[Volstad] got the sinker in on Freese all day long and tried to come in and left it out over the plate and that was a back breaker in that inning," Sveum said. "He got the ball up to Beltran, but the back breaker was the home run Freese hit."

Gallery: Sustainable Living Innovations Debuts Innovative Prefab Buildi...
The prefab apartments are designed to be streamlined, spacious yet moderately-sized, and full of daylighting.
Sustainable Living Innovations is composed of a consortium of design and engineering firms that have spent the last couple of years designing a ground-up integrated prefab system. The system is both scalable and modular, and it consists of flexible floor plans that are factory-built and then transported to the site to be assembled.
First, a concrete slab is poured and then the steel frame is assembled. Afterwards, the concrete roof slab is poured and raised from the ground to the top. Then the prefab wall systems are installed apartment by apartment. To test their theories and design, SLI recently built a prototype apartment in a Seattle warehouse.
The advantages of the SLI system include fast construction times, high-quality consistent construction, waste reduction, off-site fabrication, and savings in labor costs. The prefab apartments are designed to be streamlined, spacious yet moderately sized, and full of daylighting. All SLI projects are expected to receive LEED Silver certification or higher. The consortium, which consists of CollinsWoerman, McKinstry, Lydig Construction, and DCI Engineers, expects these types of apartment buildings to be most appealing to Gen Yers and states that they could also make for efficient and cost-effective hotels or resorts.

While these designs look very contemporary & inviting, I would question their energy use for heating & cooling. I see lot's of window area with no shading to alleviate heat gain during the summer season. I also see little in the way of insulation which in hotter climates is just as important as cold climates. Traditional air conditioning consumes enormous amount of electricity which in the southern US is very expensive. This seems to be vasty overlooked in contemporary glass curtain wall buildings & designs such as this. The prevailing attitude amongst developers of multi-family units (condominiums) & modern multi-storey commercial buildings is "Oh, the customer/end user will pay for that!" A modest investment in R40 walls, R-75 ceilings, R30 floors, heat &/or energy recovery ventilators would vastly reduce the cost of ownership for the occupant of this type of housing.

These are really chic and trendy. They have the same vibe as a solar decathlon house which are always gorgeous and enviable spaces. This would challenge Americans to live with less and I really support the idea of bringing the living space back down from the high rise to the streetscape and encouraging engagement of living spaces with the energy and activities on the street. These make me want to go to IKEA….

New York Times bestselling author Ted Dekker teams with Tosca Lee to create this gripping thriller set in a desolate future.
Many years have passed since civilization's brush with apocalypse. The world's greatest threats have all been silenced. There is no anger, no hatred, no war. There is only perfect peace... and fear. But a terrible secret has been closely guarded for centuries: Every single soul walking the earth, though in appearance totally normal, is actually dead, long ago genetically stripped of true humanity.
Fleeing pursuit, with only moments to live, a young man named Rom stumbles into possession of a vial of blood and a piece of cryptic writing. When consumed, the blood will bring him back to life. When decoded, the message will lead him on a perilous journey that will require him to abandon everything he has ever known and awaken humanity to the transforming power of true life and love. But the blood will also resurrect hatred, ambition, and greed.
Set in a terrifying, medieval future, where grim pageantry masks death, this tale of dark desires and staggering stakes peels back the layers of the heart for all who dare to take the ride. - Amazon

Nolasco leads Marlins in opener vs. visiting Padres
San Diego counters with Volquez in start of four-game series
Ricky Nolasco, set to be a free agent at season's end, may be nearing the end of his time in Miami.
The 30-year-old righty has the most wins (80) and strikeouts (998) in Marlins history, but he's been the subject of some trade talks because his contract will be up in a few months, so Miami may move him at the July 31 non-waiver Trade Deadline. The Padres have been rumored to be in the mix.
But Nolasco is trying to block out the speculation and trade talk, controlling what he can control, beginning Friday against San Diego in the first of a four-game set.
"My stuff has been sharp pretty much for the whole year. Everything feels good. I feel pretty good arm wise, body wise. Everything is perfect," said Nolasco. "I'm just blocking all that other stuff out."
Nolasco, however, wasn't sharp in his last start. He allowed nine hits and three runs over 5 2/3 innings, taking a no-decision in a win over San Francisco.
Edison Volquez, who will start Friday for the Padres, flirted with a no-hitter through five innings in his last start, but he wasn't exactly dominant. He walked seven batters and allowed two hits and five runs (two earned) in 5 2/3 innings in a loss to the Dodgers on Saturday.
"From at-bat to at-bat, was just a little bit of a variable, more so than when we've seen him on top of his game," Padres manager Bud Black said of Volquez's performance. "He was throwing the ball well. They didn't square many balls up and hit the ball hard. But the walks came back to bite him."
The Padres got the best of the Marlins in May, sweeping them in a three-game set at Petco Park and outscoring them 11-1.
Marlins: Ruggiano returns, goes 1-for-4
Justin Ruggiano was back in the Marlins lineup on Wednesday. He was out on Tuesday, hindered by a sore left shoulder from diving for the ball on Sunday at San Francisco.
He went 1-for-4 with two strikeouts. He had a .228/.297/.419 slash line with 11 home runs and 28 RBIs in 215 at-bats entering Wednesday.
Padres: Cabrera nearing return
Everth Cabrera (strained hamstring) will travel with the Padres this weekend, and the club is hopeful he'll come off the disabled list on July 2 -- the first day he's eligible to return. The plan is for Cabrera to play in Minor League rehab games over the weekend before making his return in Boston.
"More importantly, I want to watch him run," Black said. "He ran [Tuesday], sprints at about 50 percent and took ground balls. Today, it's about 75 percent, and he's increasing the activity level. He's doing well. The medical staff is hopeful for the 16th day. It's going to be close."
Cabrera is hitting .305 with an .800 OPS this season. He has scored 37 runs and stolen 31 bases in 38 attempts.
Worth noting
• Marlins starters have allowed two or fewer runs in eight of their last 10 starts.
• Nolasco is 4-4 with a 4.69 ERA and 4.00 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 10 appearances against the Padres (nine starts). He allowed one run in seven innings on May 8 in a loss to San Diego.
• Miami is 3-9 at home against the Padres since 2009.

Guest Post/Giveaway: Josephine Kimberling on Glam Garden
Thanks so much to Kim for inviting me back to True Up, to guest blog about my new fabric collection, Glam Garden! Last time I was here Kim interviewed me about my debut fabric collection Hot Blossom, and today I'm going to share with you the inspiration and creative process behind Glam Garden.
For Glam Garden, I started out with a desire to create a very pretty collection full of different types of floral prints. During my day job, I had been busy creating loads of geometrics and textural prints in dark colors. Inside I was itching to create something feminine and pretty! So when I set out to start working on Glam Garden, everything girly just flew out of me! It was quite fun and freeing to experience.
When I start creating prints for a fabric collection, I'll start creating the ones that I have a strong vision for. Next I'll work on the supporting prints. These prints are fun and interesting to create because a funny thing happens when I start drawing -– my original ideas start to morph into something different than I had originally planned. This happens because when I put them all next to each other, they may not cohesively pull the collection together, as originally intended.
The first print I designed was the two colored floral. I started out hand drawing it in pencil so I could erase and rework it as I went. Then I scanned my drawing in and drew over it in Illustrator so I could work on the repeat.
Next I designed the all-over multicolored floral. This one came from me doodling away in my sketchbook one day, fitting different shaped and sizes of flowers together.
With the garden floral, I set out to create a three-color print that was hand-drawn and free-flowing. I drew these flowers by hand using a black pen, while referring to my flower photos. Funny, but sometimes I get impatient and don't want to draw in pencil, and then over my pencil drawing with pen -– so I just go straight for the pen and start drawing away! Somehow the fear of drawing in pen forces me to focus and not mess up. I drew the flowers individually, then scanned them in and worked on the repeat in Photoshop. When I got the repeat completed, the print was really boring with my original concept of a solid ground color, with outlined flowers filled in with white. The transparent look of color came from me playing around with different layer techniques in Photoshop until I found just the right look.
The next print I worked on was the mod transparent geometric floral. I actually designed this one a couple of years ago, but it was laid out much differently. I had always loved it and wanted to rework it to fit it into this collection to add a vintage feel.
For the multicolored wallpaper print, I wanted to create a statement print that was really different and pushed me creatively. I had sketched a couple of ideas out, and for this one I just forced myself to loosen up and play with the new "blob brush" in Illustrator CS4. I haven't created anything like this before, so it was like a fun puzzle to work on! Because of the process, this print is my favorite out of this collection!
I added in the diamond burst print to add a sense of vintage nostalgia to the collection. Simple prints are the most difficult for me to create actually, because I don't find them very fun or challenging. I end up spending more time on them then I should because I work on trying to find a way to make them unique and stand on their own.
For the dotted gems print, I was inspired by the jewelry that was out last spring, which used different sized colored gems together to create shapes. I created my own interpretation into a geometric pattern.
The striped medallion floral started as a sketchbook drawing that got reworked once I started drawing it out in Illustrator. I get a lot of response out of this striped medallion-like floral, which has been fun to see! I've had the most fun actually using this one to sew with because the medallion stripes are just the right width to use for borders.
So, that wraps up the creation process of each of my Glam Garden fabrics! I thought I would also share with you a little bit about my inspiration behind the photo shoot too!
Once the colorways are chosen, strike-offs are submitted and approved, and sample yardage is developed –- it then arrives on my doorstep to begin creating away! I then pull together sewing patterns that fit my theme, take the technical drawings of those garments into Photoshop, and plop my fabrics into them, until I find a connection between the garment and the fabric.
It's always flattering to me when people ask where the patterns come from, and when they are surprised that they come from a fabric store! I feel it truly does make a difference when you are intentional about making a garment cohesive by using just the right print.
I then spent about a month sewing every spare minute I could. To be honest, I haven't really ever sewed according to a pattern until I started creating fabric collections. But since I work in fashion, I was bound and determined to sew garments to be able to tell the whole visual story of my collections.
With the bright colors and girly prints of my Glam Garden fabric collection, I really wanted to create a pretty garden party themed photo shoot! And with the transparency effects in some of the prints, I thought using tissue paper and items that diffused light would be a really pretty concept to tie it all together. To glam-up the collection, I went on a hunt for pretty looking candy – and what kind of party would this be if we didn't have cupcakes with gorgeous frosting colors??
It took a small village to pull off the photo shoot – from my friend Cheryl helping me sew, to my friend Karin who collaboratively designed the Luscious Bow Tote free pattern download, to Tina Michalik sending me the "Big Zag" quilt she designed for this collection for Robert Kaufman (get the free pattern here), to Danielle Howarth from Dani Bags Boutique offering to sew her Sophia bag in my Glam Garden fabrics, to my husband & family helping with props and friends helping with modeling. It was all of their help that allowed the photo shoot to be successful!
As you can see, it took a lot of time, thought and people to put into each fabric collection from start to finish, which when it's all complete, is very fulfilling, and I feel like I have been able to say visually all I could about that collection. And what's even better is handing over the fabric relay baton (so to speak) to the rest of the creative community and seeing what they create!
That wraps up my Glam Garden inspiration and creative process! I hope you enjoy the photos and feel inspired to create your own fabulous creations. It's always a pleasure to share with all of you. Thanks for having me!

Direct Connect inlets, also called powered inlets, electric inlets or one-step inlets, include the suction hose connection, the low-volt signal wire connection and a 120 volt connection to power an electric carpet cleaning nozzle. The ElectraValve style direct connect inlet includes a length of building wire in selectable length and gauge with bare wire at one end that is connected to power in the nearest junction or outlet box. The other end of the wire has a special terminal that connects with the ElectraValve inlet door. Direct connect inlets further simplify the use of a power brush vacuum system by managing all connections in the wall inlet. See the article Central Vacuum Hoses & Inlets in the articles tab for more information about the available hose and inlet configurations. Our EV series install kits include both the vertical open and new side-open ElectraValve inlet doors in a variety of colors. Vacdepot offers both the Vaculine ElectraValve electric inlet and the Hayden SuperValve electric inlet with junction box in addition to universal non-electric inlets in both standard and deco-style kits - see similar items tab for all options.
Compare CVS-I Installation Kits Vacdepot offers CVS-I installation kits in sizes of 2 inlets up to 15 inlets. Each kit includes the industry standard number of fittings and components plus an extra 15% of material to cover most installation needs. All CVS-I kits include at minimum the industry average 20ft of tube per inlet. Some CVS-I kits are tube-heavy and can often accommodate an extra wall inlet or sweep inlet without the need for more tubing. Larger installations usually require less tube per inlet, depending on the layout.
Bonus CVS Tube Offer If your CVS install is going to require more tube than is included in our standard package you can add a bonus vacuum tube to any CVS-I kit order and save 20% off our already discounted CVS tube pricing. There is a limit of 1 bonus bundle per CVS-I kit ordered and it must be purchased on the same order as the CVS-I kit using the drop-down "Bonus Pipe Offer" selection at the top of this page.

Since Naperville is the fifth largest city in Illinois next to Chicago,I would think you could buy Volupte Sheer Candy in one of your shopping centers. Perhaps a high end department store or Sephora, or Ulta. I know you can get it on Amazon. I buy Yves St. Laurent from there all the time. You will love Volupte, all Yves products are magnifique!
Organic Fashionista Jul 29, 2012
I did not get this color, though it looks fabulous. If it has a golden base it probably would look lovely on you. If you have never tried Volupte' Sheer Candy before, I must tell you that it is dreamy rich and smells wonderful. It is fantastic, you feel like you could eat it! I think I will try this color. I am light olive with undertones of gold and blue. Wow, I sound like an alien.
Good luck, with Volupte Sheer Candy I don't think you could go wrong with any color.
