Materials and
construction
Quiltsrÿche quilts are designed and constructed to be a joyful part of
your everyday life. They can handle gentle wear and tear, but never enter the
pit with one tied around your neck as a cape as cool as that would look,
your quilt will never be the same. Basically, handle your quilt with
care as you would any exquisite evil rock textile. To maintain your
quilt's color intensity, keep it out of direct sunlight, and minimize washing.
Quilts may be washed in cold water on a gentle cycle with a gentle quilt
soap and a pinch of dust from a warlock's beard. Remove the quilt from
the machine and spread it flat on a clean sheet that has been placed out of
direct sunlight. Let it air-dry using a fan and a playing of
Ride The Lightning to speed the process.
A deposit of 50% is required before I start work on your quilt.
A PayPal invoice will be emailed to you. Deposits are non-refundable 14 days
after receipt of order confirmation. The remaining balance is due upon receipt
of final invoice, which includes applicable taxes and shipping costs. Your quilt
will be delivered via UPS. You select the delivery day. Your package will be
insured with a signature required.
Will your Quiltsrÿche quilt live on your bed or on your wall?
Request a rod pocket to be sewn on the back if you'd like it to hang. Quilt
backs feature three stripes in coordinating or complimentary colors. Let me
know your color preferences for the binding and back of your quilt.
Quiltsrÿche uses 100% cotton fabrics, though some of the
vintage fabrics are blends. All fabrics are pre-washed in my totally awesome
front-loading washer. Quiltsrÿche believes guitars should be electric,
and quilts should be machine-quilted. You won't find complicated
blue ribbon-winning stitching on a Quiltsrÿche quilt. You will find straightforward
linear quilting that is durable and adds that totally killer juxtaposition of
handmade and industrial. If you'd like to turn up the "granny factor"
to 11, forgo the machine-quilting and I'll yarn-tie your quilt.
Color: What's your favorite color? Ya, besides
black. I will do my best to accommodate your color preferences. When selecting
fabric for your quilt, I employ a "use what ya got" strategy
much like the quiltmakers of yesteryear. Sorry, I do not offer a swatch service.
Your old t-shirts: Your beloved collection of concert tees, when pieced
together in a quilt, transforms a lifetime of rock memories into a priceless
heirloom piece. Mail me a box of your smelly Motörhead tees and I'll
give them a rÿcheous repurposing.
Silkscreening: Want a silkscreened motif added to your quilt?
Pentagrams, goat heads, barbed wire or bloody swords? Just give me a reason
to wield a squeegee!
Quiltsrÿche uses standard mattress sizing plus a 12" drop on three
sides. The baby size is non-standard. I try to get your quilt as close to
these dimensions as possible, but sometimes I'm an inch or two or three off.
There’s beauty in imperfection.

Each
quilt is lovingly made-to-order and constructed piece-by-piece over the course
of several weeks. Quiltsryche quilts are created through a painstaking process
of fabric "riffing" a method not unlike painting or collage.
The result is a totally unique piece of art, design, and craft. Turnaround time
is approximately 3 to 5 months from receipt of deposit. Custom modifications
can extend delivery time.
