T-shirt quilt
by Allison Haley 27 May '15

27 May '15

Hi neighbors, I have a number of old t-shirts that I would like to turn into a quilt. I got a quote from a company but it was a bit more than I was looking to spend. Does anyone in the neighborhood do this as a hobby or anyone's high-schooler like to craft? I would be able to pay a reasonable amount and there is no particular rush on getting this done. It also doesn't need to be perfect. :-) Thanks in advance! Allison

Lacrosse instruction for girls
by Stephane 26 May '15

26 May '15

Hi- my name is Taylor and I just completed my freshman year of college. I have 8 years experience playing lacrosse including 4 years of high school varsity level, and 1 year of NCAA Division I women's lacrosse at Robert Morris University. I am also a certified US Lacrosse junior referee. I currently intern as a coach for a Pittsburgh club team (high school level) and also have experience coaching elementary school girls in the area. There are several great summer lacrosse camps around Pittsburgh. If your schedule doesn't work well for the camps, if your daughter wants something a little more personal and geared toward her specific skill sets and needs, or if she just needs some additional work-outs, I can help. I am happy to work with experienced girls as well as new beginners. I am available for 1 on 1 or small group instruction. I prefer to work at the park in Highland Park but I can also come to your home if that's more convenient. I can do afternoons or evenings. Please email me and we can set up a time to meet- I'll be available starting next week. t.lewand(a)yahoo.com

Free miscellaneous veggie seedlings
by Allison Plummer 26 May '15

26 May '15

Hello neighbors, Free seedlings on the porch at 1135 Portland st. Disclaimer: I can't guarantee what they are, but my best guess is an assortment of butternut squash, tomatillo/ground cherry and cherry tomato I had a great showing this year for volunteer plants. Unfortunately, more than I could accommodate. I'd love for these strong-willed genes to live on in someone else's garden. Sent from my iPhone

Do you have an extra bedroom or a single 1 BR available July/Aug 1st?
by Mario Ashkar 26 May '15

26 May '15

Hello Highlanders, This June marks my 2.5 year anniversary of my move from Ohio to Pittsburgh. I was fortunate to find a beautiful home here in Highland Park and have loved my time in this area so much that I'd love to continue living in this cozy part of town. If you or a friend are looking for someone to fill a room this summer, I would be interested in moving in July or August 1st. I'm looking for a place with hardwood floors in the bedroom. About me: I'm a resident artist at a few galleries here in Pittsburgh and a fellow at Filmmaker's Flight School. I graduated from Ohio State in 2012 with a BA in Spanish and I currently work at Union Pig and Chicken and volunteer at Penn's Corner Farm Alliance. I am quiet and clean around the house and enjoy cooking for my vegan and vegetarian friends. Thanks for your time, I hope I can continue to be a member of HP's community, Mario Ashkar 330.635.3543 marioashkar(a)gmail.com
