"Cock Rock"
SIZE: 62" x 74"
BASED ON: One-patch
variation
This one-patch variation expresses a timeless sentiment in patchwork block letters. 1147 squares form a lively plus sign pattern — first aid for your weary, blackened soul.
"Skullfucked #1"
SIZE: 62" x 74"
BASED ON: Half-Log Cabin
Remember that Iron Maiden poster that was so scary you had to hide it in your closet? Did you lay awake at night expecting Eddie to come to life? When I sleep with "Skullfucked" on my bed, I'm kinda scared — in that good way. This quilt reinterprets a traditional half-log cabin design with sinister results.
"Bangover"
SIZE: 62" x 74"
BASED ON: Roman stripes
Remember your very first bangover? If only you could've warded off the evil spirits of muscle pain by wrapping yourself in the cottony warmth of Dio's loving protection. This ode to throwing the goat is based on a traditional Roman stripes design.
"Basketcase"
SIZE: 80" x 82"
BASED ON: Basket weave
“Basketcase” reworks a traditional basket weave design into a delightfully simple yet sinister memento mori. Reversed out of lively alternating stripes, the central skull design glows ominously in low-light conditions.
"Damaged"
SIZE: 84" x 92"
BASED ON: Half-Log Cabin
Abe Brennan's t-shirt collection was a monument to 20 years of punk rock adoration and perspiration. For Abe's ultimate punk rock quilt we reinterpreted the four bars of the iconic Black Flag logo with a half-log cabin design. Abe's quilt features fragments of 51 tees, including the Descendents, NoMeansNo as well as his own legendary outfits My Name and Wretch Like Me.
