text: On my '04 Silverado I notice that in the lower gears (1,2,3) that shifting can some times hesitate or be a little rough, like if I accelerate through a turn or just general driving - but not all the time. Trans fluid just flushed, new oil etc. Has the common "thunk" problem with the slip yoke. Is this normal in these trucks due to the lash in the gear design? Or should I look at maybe getting a new trans? If I need to, how much does a new trans usually cost?

Austin One of the key traits to embrace during South by Southwest is flexibility.
Not only will it save you hours of fuming when you arrive to [fill in the blank here] and its capacity is maxed out beyond all reason, but being open to plan B (and C and D and E ...) often yields unexpected rewards. I began my second day at South by Southwest at the Irie Bean Coffee Bar, off South Lamar, in a pleasant backyard space for one of Sofar Sounds' handful of shows scheduled around town during SXSW. The sun shining, a mix of young and old seated around the patio area, British singer-songwriter Lucy Rose was quietly powerful and knocked out an impressive set.
I'd meant to catch a couple acts at Waterloo Records yesterday afternoon, but the sea of humanity around the record store guaranteed I wouldn't be seeing anyone performing there in a timely fashion. Calling an audible, I hiked back up Sixth Street to catch a bit of Foxygen, whose new LP, We Are the 21st Century Ambassadors of Peace & Magic, I'd enjoyed. Despite battling less-than-optimal sound conditions, the L.A. band was able to conjure a bit of the retro magic found on record.
After a dinner break, I plunged into the evening showcases, which began on a somber note. SXSW creative director Brent Grulke died suddenly last summer, and his passing hung like a cloud over this year's Austin Music Awards. To open the show, one of the bands he'd helped shepherd, the Wild Seeds, performed an emotionally charged set. From there, it was on to one of the night's marquee performances -- and clouds of an entirely different sort. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds delivered a magnificent, brooding set that matched the rapidly darkening night at Stubb's.
I zipped over to the Moody Theatre at ACL Live, bracing myself for crowds, but was startled to find almost no one. I was there to see Dixie Chick Natalie Maines make her solo debut, but arrived early enough to see Lord Huron, an unknown I'm now a fan of.
Maines took the stage with special guest Ben Harper (who co-produced Maines' forthcoming solo debut, Mother) and Fort Worth's Justin Pate tagged along on keys. Maines, her hair mashed into a faux-hawk, was in fine voice, ripping through a tasteful selection of covers, including a gorgeous reading of Jeff Buckley's Lover You Should Have Come Over and Patty Griffin's Silver Bell.
The night took a violent turn at Power Trip's set, as the Dallas hardcore band taunted the venue across the street and instigated a mosh pit that had the venue's security staff scrambling to stop. It was riveting, even as it was mildly terrifying. Fort Worth's War Party packed a more festive atmosphere, including a bag full of balloons released early in its set. The group's sound is wonderfully undefinable, blending punk precision with a folkier impulse.
I wound up back at Central Presbyterian Church to close out the night, with a scorching turn by British soul-pop chanteuse Paloma Faith, who fairly blew a hole in the roof with her outsized voice.
Did I get to see everything I wanted to? No. Was my second day on the ground in Austin nevertheless full of fantastic music? Absolutely.

Vivus Jumps as FDA Allows Wider Sales of Obesity DrugAnna Edney
Vivus Inc. rose the most since March 6 after U.S. regulators said the drugmaker can sell its obesity pill Qsymia in more pharmacies than first allowed.
Vivus gained 5.6 percent to $11.78 at 4 p.m. New York time. The company had fallen by more than half since winning approval for the drug on July 17, as sales were slower than investors expected.
Qsymia, which the Food and Drug Administration restricted to sales through certain mail-order pharmacies, can now be offered through certified retail pharmacies as well, Mountain View, California-based Vivus said today in a statement. Vivus's goal is to make Qsymia available in thousands of retailers over the next three months, President Peter Tam said in the statement.
The change "is a key accomplishment in removing a major barrier that has hindered the initial acceptance of Qsymia into everyday medical practice," Tam said. "Retail access, along with ongoing improvements in reimbursement, will help to accelerate Qsymia awareness, trial and usage."
Qsymia is a combination of the appetite suppressant phentermine and the antiseizure drug topiramate, both of which are available separately in generic form. Qsymia accounted for 2.5 percent of total obesity prescriptions as of April 5, compared with 87 percent for phentermine, Andrew Berens, an analyst with Bloomberg Industries, said yesterday in a report.

So let's say I am going at 35mph and 2.75K RPM (3rd gear) as I hit my brakes I slow to about 1.75K RPM (not sure what speed I will be at). Clutch in then change to 2nd, I hit my throttle to hit about 2.75K RPM then release my clutch. But the part I don't understand is should I over rev the engine to about 3.25 since if I tap the throttle it drops real quick. Also should I ease out the clutch?

I wouldnt advise "launching" until you have driven the car for a while and have a good feel for the clutch. If you try it too early you are bound to burn up the clutch too much or bust the tranny.
Good luck!

Primary features interesting races
Voters in central Minnesota who go to the polls for Tuesday's primary will have a variety of races to weigh in on, ranging from a rare DFL primary for the 8th Congressional District to three county board races in Crow Wing and Morrison counties.
This year, at least in the Brainerd area, the Democrats have cornered the market in primary races for partisan offices.
Three DFLers are vying to unseat Rep. Chip Cravaack — the man who unseated longtime Rep. Jim Oberstar, D-Minn., two years ago. The DFLers are former Duluth City Council member Jeff Anderson, former state Sen. Tarryl Clark, and former U.S. Rep. Rick Nolan, who is the endorsed candidate.
Three DFL-endorsed legislative candidates face challengers. Taylor Stevenson of Baxter, the endorsed candidate for Senate District 10, is being challenged by Aitkin County Commissioner Anne Marcotte. Endorsed House 10B candidate Joe Radinovich of Crosby is being challenged by David Schaaf of McGregor. In Senate District 5, which includes part of Cass County, Sen. Tom Saxhaug, the DFL incumbent, is being challenged by Laverne H. Pederson of Bemidji.
The race for Crow Wing County Board's District 5 post features Ronda Cool, Kris Hasskamp, incumbent Doug Houge, Thomas Nixon and David Allan Pundt.
Voters in Crow Wing County District 1 will choose among Monty Jensen, Doug Kern, Paul Koering, incumbent Philip Trusty and announced write-in candidate Marv Begin.
In Morrison County the District 1 board candidates are Sharon Ballou, Chuck Forss, Bob Harmsen, Clint Kathrein, Robert Masog and Kevin Maurer.
In the county races the top two vote-getters will advance to the general election.
Not responding to the Dispatch's inquiries were Koering in Crow Wing County District 1; Saxhaug and Pederson in Senate District 5; and Harmsen, Kathrein, Masog and Maurer in District 1 of Morrison County.

Summer is here, and we all like to have a refreshing dip to escape from the scorching heat, but where is the best place to go for a swim? Here is a list of the top 10 weird and wonderful swimming pools across the globe.
1 Infinity pool in Singapore at Marina Bay Sands resort:
Kicking off this list is the massive 150m Infinity Pool on the 57th floor of the Marina Bay Sands resort which is three times the size of an Olympic swimming pool. Don't look down though. At 198m high, this pool can turn your relaxing dip into the scariest swim of your life.
Can you swim there? Sadly, guests only.
2 Gold Energy Pool at St. Regis in Lhasa, Tibet:
This swimming (or is that blinging?!) pool, which is lined with thousands of golden tiles, looks like the kind of place you would see P. Diddy and Jay-Z lounging in. Children under 12 are not allowed unaccompanied, and loud, disruptive activities such as diving and splashing, are strictly off limits as they might undermine Zen pool's Zen vibe. Swimming laps is frowned upon, so if you ever make it there expect to spend your hour or so making star shapes and contemplating the universe.
Can you swim there? Guests only. They obviously can't run the risk of the hoi-polloi trying to pinch a golden tile or two.
3 Golden Nugget Pool at The Golden Nugget Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada:
You could pretty much write a book about Vegas and its opulent swimming pools. The Corinthian columns which tower over you at Caeasars Palace are amazing as is Nevada's only beach at the Mandalay Bay. This pool has even featured in films and was once the favoured haunt of a certain Ringo Starr. For me though The Tank at The Golden Nugget stands out as you get the scare of your life as you slide through as tank filled with sharks and 300 other sea creatures. Then dry off and play blackjack around the pool.
Can you swim there? Guests and sharks only.
4 Giola Lagoon, natural pool near Astris on Thassos in the Greek Islands:
Swimming in this pool isn't just a pleasant dip, but an adventure. Searching for this remote pool carved into rock can take hours. And when you get there jumping off rocks up to 8m high into this warm lake, cut off from the sea, is easy and fun. Climbing up the ultra slippery flat rocks to the top again is another matter. If you don't have the courage to jump you can simply lounge in the pool.
Can you swim there? Yes, free to swim, hard to get to.
5 Blue Lagoon Geothermal Resort pool in Grindavík , Iceland:
This milky lagoon, sited a short-ish drive from Reykjavik isn't just an interesting experience, but is also apparently good for your health too. The water, which is part seawater and freshwater, originates from 2,000m below the surface, at extreme temperatures. By the time it reaches the lagoon it is a lush 38°C even in the middle of an arctic winter. The lagoon gets its colour naturally from silica, algae and minerals. The water is actually white, but is tinged blue by the Sun, and if you were to pour some of the water in a glass it would look like milk. A must have experience for anyone who visits Iceland.
Can you swim there? Pay entrance for the spa.
6 Shaw House, Vancouver:
This privately owned pool stretches all the way across the west side of the house. It is not only perfect for laps, but also refracts light into the rooms of the house such as the dining room. It also traverses above the entrance and on a sunny day provides a dreamlike aqueous light pattern on the whole entrance area. Swimming in this pool would, however, require either buying the house or breaking into it.
Can you swim there? No.
7 Devil's Pool on Victoria Falls, Zambia:
Fancy a swim a bit more challenging than the one at your local Lido? This naturally made pool is found on the very edge of Victoria Falls in Zambia is one of the most dangerous pools ever. For starters it is only accessible in the months between September and December, when the water level is safe enough and water current is minimal. And then there is the small matter of that drop. Courageous swimmers have taken pictures whilst lying across the edge of the fall, however given that there have been several deaths doing this you might prefer to give it a miss. If you are not confident enough in your swimming skills, you can pull yourself to the pool using a wire from the shore on the side.
Can you swim there? Yes, but you must book in advance with small groups of up to 16 people.
8 The San Alfonso del Mar Seawater Pool in Algarrobo, Chile:
Now this is more like it. Apparently the world's largest pool the San Alfonso is not only reserved for swimmers, but you can also find small sailing boats and kayaks on it. It measures 1km in length and holds 66million gallons of water at a pleasant temperature of 26°C. It also features floating trampolines. Located on the country's pacific coast. Not a single person can be seen on the beach dwarfed by the pool next to it.
Can you swim there? Guests go free, non-guests have to pay admission.
9 Mansion in Boulder City, Nevada:
Tired of waiting in queues with screaming children at waterparks? Well why not buy a mansion in Nevada worth $3million? This mansion has its own diving pool, lazy river, waterfall and numerous secret grottos. The estate copies an old western aesthetic, with an old saloon next to the pool to sit and dry in. This Disneyesque 1.5 acre estate is the perfect summer hangout.
Can you swim there? No. Unless you have a spare $3million.
10 Beer Pool at The Starkenberg brewery in Tarrenz, Austria:
Tired of trying to wash all your problems and stress down your throat with a beer? Well at the Starkenberg brewery you can literally bathe it in. There they fill up their tubs with approximately 12,000 litres of beer for you to soak in and you relax knowing that a dip in beer has surprising health benefits such as 'ensuring supple skin'. The perfect hangover cure? Possibly.
Can you swim there? Yes, reserve in advance for up to 7 people per pool.

Indio fire caused by arson
Investigators: Business intentionally set on fire
Indio - Investigators determined a fire at a business in Indio on Tuesday was set intentionally.
Firefighters were called to Pacific Brake and Alignment to a 2-alarm fire at 83260 Indio Boulevard around 9:10 p.m. They were able to knock down the flames in about 15 minutes.
There was no one in the building at the time of the fire, and nobody was injured. People in the area say they're not surprised by the cause. "This is been going on for a long time, there's a lot of homeless people here, come and set up their little homes," said a man who works in the area and wanted to remain anonymous. "Then they leave all their trash behind."
The man also said the area on Indio boulevard next to the railroad track, often attracts homeless people. He also says, it's not the first damage he thinks they've caused. "They broke in, stole stuff out of it. And some people were sleeping in there, then got kicked out."
He says homeless people targeted a mobile home and when someone confronted them, they set it on fire.
Jose Cota owns G & C Smog and Auto Repair next door. He says he's had the same type of problems. "It is scary, it is scary," said Cota. "Because you know, you might lose your business, because of these people who don't care."
Cota put up this fence on his property to better secure his shop, but he still wants more done. "I think we need to do something with the city, and the city needs to patrol this area more often," said Cota.
A spokesman from Indio PD told us, they're aware of the homeless issues in the area, and ask people to call if they see problems. Also, the department says it works with Union Pacific police to better deal with things like this.
Meanwhile, business owners just want it to stop. "These people just come and set up their homes and leave trash and fire things up. It needs attention."
Investigators are asking for any witnesses who may have seen suspicious behavior to report the information. You can call the Arson Hotline at (800) 633-2836.

Dear CK, I have been without an oven for several years and have to admit that I haven't missed it. With only my husband and me home, replacing the oven has not become a priority. I do have a toaster oven, a crockpot and a microwave. Like you my stove top still works as well. I have not found anything that will not cook nicely in one of the appliances. One year we had the butcher cut the turkey in half and baked it half at a time in the crockpot. I have discovered for smaller things that were too small for the crockpot on its own, I have discovered that glass baking dishes that fit in the crockpot will bake meatloaf perfectly set inside with the temperature on high for the first half and low to finish. Since the substitutes work so well, we may not replace the oven. Be creative and find an alternative.
Survive without an oven
What do you do if you don't have your oven? For the past two weeks, I have not had an oven, and my mind has ventured onto other options. The computer board of my oven went out, but the stove is still operable. Fortunately, and hopefully, it is getting fixed today (praying here). Over the past couple of years, I have been studying about adobe ovens and other bread ovens. I am hoping to build one someday, especially as we make a transition onto some long-hoped-for land/property. But I have wondered what the options are if we actually lost our oven and couldn't bake. — C.K., e-mail
I lived without an oven for a while when I was first married. I managed quite well with a gas grill, wok, toaster oven, microwave, electric skillet, Nesco roaster oven and slow cooker. You can use a bread machine for baking bread. You can make a solar oven (solarcooking.org/plans), use a dutch oven over fire, bake bread in a crockpot (www.food.com/recipe/couldnt-be-easier-slow-cooker-bread-112579) or use a Coleman oven as alternatives to more expensive clay and bread ovens, too.
What are some uses for almost ripe tomatoes? I have six to eight medium/large tomatoes that are too soft to be eaten in a salad or sandwich, but I don't want to toss them either. Should I dice them up and use them in soup? Care to share your other uses for almost spoiled tomatoes? — Libby, Canada
Soup is a great idea. Add them to stew, lasagna or spaghetti sauce, macaroni and cheese, pizza, quesadillas, tacos, fajitas, omelet, chili, chicken cacciatore, meat loaf or casseroles. Or serve the tomatoes chopped and cooked with a pot roast or make salsa, dips or homemade ketchup. You have a ton of options. Use them in most any hot dish you'd normally use tomatoes in.
How do you get grape juice out of cotton? My daughter spilled grape juice on our skirts at Communion last night. I have washed them in the washer with cold water. Now they just look like a dark shadow. They're no longer purple, but there's still a visible stain, so I didn't put them in the dryer. Any ideas on how I can finish getting the stain out? — J.

Pour a kettle of boiling water over the clothing. Then use a vinegar soak. Let soak for about half an hour. Keep the vinegar. Don't discard it. Rinse the clothing. If the stain still remains, apply rubbing alcohol. Then flush with water again. Each stain removal attempt should lighten it more. If it's still visible, apply lemon juice and soak in water with a couple of squirts of dish liquid (such as Dawn) and your reserved vinegar added. Let soak for 15 minutes. Rinse and wash in your washing machine with laundry detergent. After washing, if you can still see traces of the stain, apply Barbasol shaving cream. Brush it into the fabric with a toothbrush. It works wonders on stains. Finally, if that stain is still there, try applying a small amount (capful) of hydrogen peroxide. Then wash.

text: Ok, going to answer my own post...was able to remove the slide cover plate and remove the internals. Doing so enabled me to remove the slide. Did some google searching and found others who had the same issue with a LM guide rod spring laser. The concept is cool, but not convinced its a great system. Im back to my original spring and will be retiring my LM to the desk drawer. Any other have experience with LM or had this issue?

Reservations in some of Montreal's most trendy restaurants can be tricky to secure (and we mean that in a good way), but the most exclusive seat of all might not be in a restaurant at all…
Les Nuits Borgia is an exclusive dinner party hosted every Thursday in a gorgeous Belle Epoque dining room above a chocolatier on Sherbrooke Street West in the Golden Square Mile. The dinners resemble the ever-so-trendy pop-up restaurants that have, well, popped up all over the place in recent years. Hidden Kitchen in Paris had to move to bigger digs in the tony 1st arrondissement while their waiting lists groaned under six months of eager diners (the hosts also became worldwide consultants for Williams-Sonoma). New York's The Feast recently hosted a pop-up college culinary class based on their success.
Les Nuits Borgia, Montreal's version of this trend, is both more elegant and more refined—though it probably won't be long til they have a six-month waiting list, too. The dinners, which seat 22 people by reservation only (see below), are a collaboration between three careerists in the culinary arts who are also longtime friends: Chef Nicolina Servello, Chocolatier Nada Fares from Le Maitre Chocolatier and pastry artist Jami Liverman, as well as local PR woman-about-town, Anisha Rangi.
Les Nuits Borgia is "inspired loosely" by the historical figure of Lucrezia Borgia, a medieval bon-vivant who is also a main character on The Borgias, Showtime's new show that stars local it-boy Francois Arnaud.
"Lucrezia was a woman that loved life, men and decadence, " says spokeswoman Rangi. "When we thought of extravagance, we thought of her. Les Nuits Borgia is all about decadence and seduction of the senses…of course with food, not sex!" she clarifies.
Indeed, Montreal Buzz recently had a seat at the table for a Nuits Borgia dinner party; seated between our colleagues at Tourisme Montreal and a top-level concierge for local private-jet manufacturer Bombardier, we plied the night with champagne and a most alluring menu:
- Porcini and Wild Quebec Mushroom Medley on Crostini
- Springtime Fior di Latte Megaglione on a bed of Minted Pea Puree
- Baby Arugula Lemon-Lime Granita Sipper
- Truffle Salt Seared Bavette on Crisp Corn Polenta Cake with Buttered Asparagus and Roasted Radish
- Pear, Endive and Shaved Fennel Salad
- Chocolate Cherry Clafoutis, Vanilla Shortbread, Vanilla Crème Anglaise, Sour Cherry Reduction and Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
Before we began our meal, Chef Servello spoke passionately about her family's hobby farm near Montreal, where she learned to appreciate the fruits of the terroir and where she hopes to harvest many of the ingredients used in this meal.
This particular night. I was especially thrilled with the handmade Medaglione with Flor du Latte, a creamy type of Mozzarella, and the refreshing Arugula sipper, an uncommon taste made me think of spring. Chef Liverman's clafoutis was also memorable, with a not-too-sweet crème anglaise and white brownie to go that was devoured in a midnight fit of appreciation for the evening, and the meal.

I had a horrible experience dealing with them in June this year. They are very disorganized and the staff is overworked. They don't review the application completely and wake up after weeks asking for more info. And they don't honor their rate lock guarantee prominently displayed on the website! The supervisor doesn't take the phone calls either to review problems.
In my case, they kept coming back asking for more info. Tax records, investment property mortgage, HELOCs, business that was closed over one year back, past employers, loan subordination, etc.
In the end, i was left holding the bag for home appraisal and credit check fee. They also made me cancel my HELOC and I also paid to have it registered in the county and worked with my bank to get their appraisal the paperwork.
My rate went from 2.75 to 3.125. The supervisor didn't take my call and stopped responding to email.
Think twice before dealing with them!

Davis, trying to make U.S. team for WCQ, plays in front of his home fans
HOUSTON -- Tuesday night's international friendly was a big game for Houston Dynamo veteran midfielder Brad Davis.
Of course, he was playing in front of his home fans, but he also was playing for a spot on the U.S. team for its first World Cup qualifier in Honduras next Wednesday.
Davis, 31, who made his sixth international appearance and his first since a 2-1 victory over El Salvador in Tampa, Fla. on Feb. 24, started at left midfield. He was replaced by Alejandro Bedoya in the 64th minute.
As for whether he will be named to the U.S. team, the former New York/New Jersey MetroStars admitted he did not know.
"That's up for the coaching staff to decide," Davis said. "I think it was a good training camp. I got some positive feedback. I know that I'm a piece of that puzzle, but where I fit I'm not quite sure yet. I think it's going to take a little bit more time to get integrated with everybody and get a few more opportunities to see where that goes, but another opportunity will be there down the road."
Davis admitted the scoreless tie at BBVA Compass Stadium was disappointing. The U.S. attack was too tentative, especially when it reached the Canadian penalty area.
"Obviously it was not the result we wanted," he said. "I think we were a little bit tentative when we got around the 18. I would like to try to create a few more things and get some shots on goal. I don't think we had a shot from outside the whole game. You know, those are things that are going to happen when you're around a group of guys that haven't been playing a whole lot together."
The game was special for Davis, who plays his games for the Houston Dynamo at the stadium. So, he was a natural fan favorite. He received nice ovations when he was introduced and when he was subbed.
"It's a great feeling and a warm welcome," he said. "It was great to be able to walk out there and see how excited the fans were for us. It's just like playing a home game. You're representing your country and not the Dynamo, but still as a player you have to attack the game with the same mentality and go out there and give your best. For me, there was no pressure."

Cody Ross reminds us he likes hitting home runs and going to hockey games
|03.03.12 at 6:21 pm ET
FORT MYERS, Fla. ' Cody Ross' swing is made for Fenway Park.
That was the consensus the instant the outfielder signed his one-year, $3 million deal with the Red Sox this offseason. Saturday's Sox' 25-0 win over Northeastern at JetBlue Park did nothing to dissuade such analysis going forward.
Ross launched two home runs over the 42-foot left field wall ' the second coming in the form of a grand slam ' on the way to a memorable beginning to his Red Sox' career.
'Cody Ross is an unbelievable player. He's a great player,' said Adrian Gonzalez, who also had a homer in the rout over the Huskies. 'I've always said he goes up to the plate fearless and has a great s wing. Plays the game hard. Plays a great outfield. Runs the bases hard. Has a great arm in the outfield. When he came into camp and guys are talking about him as a guy that they don't know what's going to happen. I was like, what are you guys talking about? This guy is a legit everyday player who can do it all. The great thing about it so is [Ryan] Sweeney. We have tow guys that are going to compete and do a great job in right field.'
Here is what Ross ' who walked out of the stadium wearing a Bruins baseball hat — had to say after his two-hit, two-run, five RBI performance:
You know, it was good. It's one of those days where you want to go out and just get the cobwebs dusted off and just, as a team, go out and try not to get hurt and just play the game and we played well today.'
'Obviously any time you swing the bat well, whether it's in Little League or against college pitching or major league pitching, it feels good. We swung the bats well today. Definitely, I like it. It plays a lot better for my swing than a lot of parks I've played in. You definitely can't get too concerned about it. You've just got to stay with your game and try to hit the ball wherever they pitch it. Today, they left a couple out over the plate.'
'Any hitter that claims that some power wants to hit in a hitters' ballpark. It just so happens Fenway fits well for right-handed swings. Like I said, try not to think about it too much. You can get yourself in a lot of trouble just thinking about that wall the whole time. Take what I got today and try to get better.'
'Stay balanced. Not get out ahead of myself and get my body in the way. Keep my hands back and let them work. That's basically what I've been working on it a lot since this offseason and trying to take it into games. Fortunately today it worked a little bit.'
(Why the hat? 'I'm a huge hockey fan. I like watching hockey. My son loves hockey. We went to an Everblades (minor league hockey) game the other night. I like watching it. It's fun to watch. I live in Boston now, root for them, they're pretty good.'
(Why a hockey fan?) 'I grew up in my younger years in Texas, so I followed the stars for years. I moved out to Arizona and followed the coyotes, have a couple of buddies on the team. So now I'm a Bruins fan.'

DO YOU HAVE APTTERN FOR THIS I LIKE THIS IT IS SO PRETTYOriginally Posted by Kitsie
Hello there! I am making many Christmas gifts this year including a jewelry organizer for my 14 yr. old grand daughter. I am making a quilt bed cover for my 12 yr. old grandson. I am making a totebag for another grand daughter and made apron, pot holder and towel topper sets for the girls and ladies in the family.
I also make tissue holders and makeup organizers for the office staff and a mug organizer in masculine fabrics for the desk working guys in the family. I hope that helps a little bit! Kathy
Hello! That young age group is very subjective on the purses they use. How big, what colors, what length of strap, closures? I make lots and lots of handbags and find that young adults need to tell you what they are interested in to make sure they love the purses you will make for them. I hope that helps. Kathy
Yes, I would like to see how these snap bags are made also.Originally Posted by dotlette
Can we get a pattern on line?
Thanks again,
Table runners & placemats. Just finished one set of placemats & will post pictures later.
I purchased some lovely Christmas Fabric from the US, I have made three table runners using the tube quilting tutorial on this website, I am also making Christmas Stockings for babies having their first Christmas, each stocking has their name embroidered on the top they have turned out really well. My aim is to get everything done by the end of November. So when Christmas arrives when everyone else is madly running around I can hide under the doona and maybe it will all go away.
Table runner, placemats and table toppers if I can get my act together - I'm kind of stuck in the mud right now for some reason and can't seem to get moving on anything.
All my childern are comming for Christmas, I am making christmas aprons for all the girls. I thought I would look great all hanging on the wall. One son and grandson are getting their quilt. And I have to make some Christms stockings for the new grandchilren. I guess I had better get started.
So many good ideas! I am just finishing up the quilts I started for last year's birthdays, sigh.
Things I WANT to make: PJ pants for DSIL & niece, mug bucket organizers (Simplicity 2450), quilted potholders, crocheted amigurumi, crocheted potholders. Not to mention crocheted scarves and blankets for charity (told DH that "leftovers" need to be used for _something_).
Anything not ready for the holidays defaults to a birthday item. ;-)
