At least I do. On her own site she describes herself as follows: <span style="font-style:italic;">"Boo Davis is a designer, illustrator and quiltmaker living in Seattle. She spent much of her youth cozied up under her grandmother's quilt listening to Ozzy. As a grown-up metalhead and design geek, the intersection of cute and evil is what she finds most compelling."<br /></span><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj845U66wj3RLLK14_kWCjrnHUUuUTnnxjQLACGQYVUio9UaXxtEWN_uax96OOn2qskfMTtgCWBcuxVE4wT9hWw0ujopcLLVg775YWU0Wq76TgK5qbrPOkt2ATagRa9hf56YzMdrTWZmt_a/s1600/CURRENTS-4-articleLarge.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5507249576615655042" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj845U66wj3RLLK14_kWCjrnHUUuUTnnxjQLACGQYVUio9UaXxtEWN_uax96OOn2qskfMTtgCWBcuxVE4wT9hWw0ujopcLLVg775YWU0Wq76TgK5qbrPOkt2ATagRa9hf56YzMdrTWZmt_a/s400/CURRENTS-4-articleLarge.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 527px; height: 291px;" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.quiltsryche.com/" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5507248617001041282" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6NLoHrEoEyyUNJxqbuo2vjW-nTBRbV4WH47kf3gxAWHgnjlkB3OFN9dq6YIF0sGnSvKak07swkErPCijauO5Z4qlwxYgbMI3Qf5BLvnc1O_km2IC6AWNgMrbRqsPr1_jbmoeu9dQsn8jR/s400/header.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 526px; height: 106px;" /></a><br /><br />This is apparent in her hip quilts. No grandma patchwork for this gal, instead Quiltsrÿche blends rock n' roll imagery, attitude and a smart sense of color and design.

All fabrics are pre-washed. A Quiltsrÿche quilt is made with straightforward linear quilting that is durable and adds, in Boo's words, "that totally killer juxtaposition of handmade and industrial."<br /><br />Your Quiltsrÿche quilt can 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 complementary colors.

Feather inserts, hidden zippers on seams and piping in contrasting colors are just some of the details that make these both unique and impressive.<br /><br />"My pieces are made with the intention that they will be around forever and passed down from mothers to daughters." says Laura.<br /><br />In this age of mass-produced products, Goldstein's pieces are printed and dyed one at a time. All are slightly different. Many of her fabrics include a layer printed with hand-written family letters. The handwriting is from the late 1800s when penmanship played an important role in defining a person. In her larger works, she often hides a tiny image or two within the design--most of them symbols for good luck.<br /><br />Some of her pillows shown below:<br /><a
