Lehman grad making big splash on fashion scene By KYLIE SHAFFERKOETTER Post Staff Small town boy makes it big. Well, sort of. He's definitely on his way. Jay McCarroll, son of William and Nancy McCarroll of Lehman has gone on to Philadelphia to explore and master his art of de- signing clothes. The 22 year old, youngest of sixwho attended Lake- Lehman, just graduated from Philadelphia College of Textiles and Science with a bachelor of science degree in fashion design and is ready to slap the world with his patchwork creations. “I've always been into the arts. I made my own clothes in high school,” explained McCarroll of his beginnings in the field. “My mother taught me how to sew and my sisters quilted.” Don’t expect some boring basic black dress out of McCarroll. Think post-nuclear war and men- tal-illness. While drifting in the park one day he was inspired to Auction New Goods Booth taking donations DALLAS - If it's new or just looks that way, take it to the New Goods Booth for this year’s Back Mountain Memorial Library’s 51st auction. Each year the booth’s organizers search high and low for items to go across the block. Each purchase benefits the li- brary, and winning bidders usu- ally walk away with a bargain. The auction is an annual event to benefit the library and give the community a fun weekend, the Back Mountain's “social event of the year.” Peggy Harvey, New Goods Booth chairperson, said he committee will take anything that works.

His schizophrenia-inspired men's collection draws influences from crazy quilts and “mental in- capacities,” such as obsessive compulsive behavior. McCarroll designed an orange pin-striped suit with the words, “one, two, three, button, one, two, three, button,” to express this particu- lar mental state. McCarroll said everything he designs is patchwork because it represents his love of a variety of fabrics and the fact that he's a tactile person. Recently he was chosen through his school to participate in the newly founded Master Ap- prentice Program presented by Wellman, Inc. He worked under Zang Hoi, designer and one of his garments was showcased during American Fashion Week in New York City. “I got to sit in front. It was neat to see the designers work to- ture, machinery, lawnmowers and hoses are just a few of the items auctioned off over the years. “We get big and small. Everything is auctioned off. We never have anything left” explained Harvey. “Cash donations are turned into items we're low on and then go to the block with the donor’s name on it,” said Harvey, who has been involved with the auction since childhood. “If people donate gift certificates their names will also go over the block.” This year, the library's flag pole is one of the more unusual items that will be available. Due to the construction of the Children’s Wing, the flag pole will have to be Restaurant Weekly Features (Appetizer Feature Seared Beef Tenderloin with a Roguefort Cream and Roasted 2 2 2 2 2 Teardrop Tomatoes : 2 : 2 Entree Features.
