First off, for the skeptical, I just want you to know that quilting takes mad skills and can thus be done with supreme masculinity intact, and even amplified a yard or two. The pattern I used was one from the
internet called "Carnivorous Hippie". It epitomizes the beautiful balance between
Gaia and a bacon double cheese burger. As our dichotomies define us, so do the otherwise clash-laden, conflicting fabric patterns find harmonious unity when stitched together. The tiles below show two of the twenty squares used for a queen sized bed. No ironing and no pins folks, this is
guerrilla-style quilting, State of Jefferson at its best.


A closer examination of these
exquisite tiles shows mammalian morsels and finned
delectabilities in
their native habitats. My quilt speaks the story of the infinitely
tantalizing tastiness of nature.
A ponderous off-shoot of this
paradigm-
shifting quilt-induced
wintery endeavor was the discovery that dogs love to quilt. Some may claim that my
attempts to teach a puppy how to use a sewing machine borders on the asinine, but I
counter that we shall not
discriminate against our canine companions...Quilting for dogs, quilting for all species, quilting forever!


Note: I lay waste with a second-hand 1975 Singer, from back when they built sewing machines with metal gears and an ornery disposition. If your sewing machine happens to have a computer inside it, you better hope we don't meet on the streets.
