I find myself in possession of about eight tanned deerskins that I would like to turn into a safari jacket. However, I can't find patterns anywhere. Does anyone know where one might pick up a size 44 or 44L pattern?
Well, having read the entire thread, I still don't have enough of an answer to induce me to buy one. I guess I'll have to wait, especially since I wear a long to extra-long oval. If the Range is that stiff I doubt I would find it comfortable unless DM can import one in the proper shape for me...
:D Come to L.A. and visit Hollyhock House some time. It totally escapes me how a man who designed the most earthquake-proof building in Tokyo could in the same decade build a home that has to be heavily repaired every time we have a Richtor 5 or greater temblor. I suppose you can call that...
This has been most interesting and informative. My usual safari wears a zebra skin but I just 'safarized' a IJ. I think a Lawrance puggaree is in order . . . In fact, I may just get two of them for when I buy a better safari hat!
I didn't feel up to reading this entire thread so ignore me if someone has already mentioned it, but . . . there simply is nothing like five-year-old Cougar Gold! You buy a tin a year and put them in the back of the fridge. When it reaches the five year mark, break out a couple of bottles of...
It hasn't been a very good tomato or zucchini year but the chard and the flageolet beans are doing very well. The avocado will be near falling down next year there are so many fruits on it and the orchids are coming along nicely. When the next cattleya opens in a week or so, I'll post pix. I...
accuratereloading.com? I know the place well, as does Chasseur. We also occasionally visit http://nitroexpress.com, another site devoted to the shooting and appreciation of double rifles.
Philip, which country are you operating out of, Tanzania? I'd love to go there, having had wonderful...
A class in art history back in my upper division days in the late '60's. Nineteenth and Twentieth Century American Architecture, Art 2XXA & B, Professor Carrot presiding. He was a brilliant lecturer; suave, dapper ladies' man and first rate wit. RIP, Professor Carrot.
Falling Water, like so many of Wright's work, looks lovely but is entirely unlivable. The people who had him design it moved out after only one year because of the noise and constant damp. His Prairie Houses are marvelous but so many of the others . . .
I want to live here.
Tichenor House...
Man, that brings back memories of the cabin my maternal grandparents' friends owned up near Helena, MT. The fishing wasn't any good because the stream was too small but the chokecherry bushes were loaded. Mashed, sweetened and poured over home-made ice cream, they were a small boy's idea of...
Captions? I could write whole stories about some of those photos! Of course, I wouldn't be allowed to post them on this family friendly site . . . :censored:
