I must be in a weird mood today. I keep finding these weird quilts. These guy makes quilts from used clothing. He calls them Bed Clothes. Here is an example of his work. Can you see the shirt?

That's really interesting. Yes, I see the shirt!
I think the cluttered look would drive me absolutely INSANE!!!!

When I was younger, my bed looked like that, only with my clothes on it! LOL I love the name he gives them, bed clothes, it is so appropriate.

Looks like my son's floor!

(He'll never see this post...)

;)

Very interesting. Although, it doesn't appeal to me.

Kids would probably love quilts and rugs made like this!!

DebraK 10-01-2010 04:07 PM

Yes. I'm happy this happening, but not if it is some huge money making trend of the year.

mac 10-01-2010 04:08 PM

I love it. Although it really doesn't go with the decor, the rooms needs to be messier to really fit in. What a great imagination he has. I'd love to see other quilts that he has done.

Thanks for the smile time.

unusual concept, for sure...
not my taste (i'd keep trying to pull the shirt off and fold it!) but definitely very interesting and creative!

SaraSewing 10-01-2010 04:11 PM

VERY unusual. Looks like a cluttered bed, floor, etc.

I have to agree. Seems like a lot of work to end up with something that just looks like a mess. - Oh well, to each his own. I do have to give him credit for a clever name though.

mygirl66 10-01-2010 04:16 PM

I think its cool!

pocoellie 10-01-2010 04:21 PM

I don't know if "interesting" would be the right word, but I guess it's whatever floats your boat. LOL

I could see a teenage boy really liking the bed clothes quilt.

Baysidegal 10-01-2010 04:36 PM

A teenager's dream quilt...

Quiltforme 10-01-2010 04:39 PM

I have to say I like it in a weird messy way!!! Very creative!

Mariposa 10-01-2010 04:45 PM

Is, um, different. Creative name too.

stefanib123 10-01-2010 04:54 PM

I love it! I think its very creative, very original and very "green".

I love seeing handcrafted items that are "outside the box". TFS!

Ditter43 10-01-2010 05:03 PM

Not for me! I think some younger people already have beds that look like that!! :lol:

T-Bones mom 10-01-2010 05:17 PM

I see the shirt and the glove and the boxers. Not my kind of quilt. At first I thought it was the materials getting ready to make a quilt. Took me a minute to get it. I must be slow tonight. I would never want anything like that. It looks messy and I am to organized to have anything that is that messy looking. Different strokes for different folks.

patimint 10-01-2010 05:47 PM

I think it would go great in my bedroom. DH couldn't tell if it were a quilt on the bed or just my "mess". LOL

ChubbyBunny 10-01-2010 05:50 PM

I see the shirt AND the underwear!!! Yuck!!!

sew_southern 10-01-2010 05:51 PM

Hmmmm, looks like my 16 year olds bed & floor. At least I can shut her door and not have to look at it! :lol:

littlehud 10-01-2010 05:56 PM

Wow, I just need to step into my sons room to make one just like it. :lol: :lol: :lol:

cjomomma 10-01-2010 06:15 PM

If I want to see that I will go into the kids rooms. It makes me want to clean and do the laundry. I bet it will be a big hit with the younger generation but for me it is yuck!!!

pab58 10-01-2010 06:34 PM

Hmmmmmm.......no thanks! :roll:

wolph33 10-01-2010 06:35 PM

very unique

Looks like my son's bed after he gets ready to go out for the evening!

b.zang 10-01-2010 06:39 PM

Further proof that art is in the eye of the beholder.

We make quilts that are donated to the homeless shelter here; I'd hate for them to end up with quilts like that!

annette1952 10-01-2010 06:40 PM

Not for me but others will love it! I'm just not into the messy look!

leonajo 10-01-2010 06:41 PM

It is amazing to see soooo many different quilting ideas that everyone has!

amen to that...insane mouse!
I'm not a clean freak, but the bed is the focal point in the bedroom.
No wrinkles...ah!!!!!!
it is interesting though,...but who in the world wants to spend all that time creating and end up with wrinkled laundry sewed together on the bed.
That is where I fold laundry and try to smooth the wrinkles out, lol!
OH MY! :roll: :lol:

How true!! And all this time, my daughter has been thinking her teen sons were slobs!! Their beds look like that, and they even have an accessorized corner that might pass for a "designer rug" in this environment!!!
Hmmm........maybe there is hope for them as "interior designers"? :roll:

amma 10-01-2010 08:09 PM

I love his creativity! My grands would love this :D:D:D

jitkaau 10-02-2010 02:31 AM

kuntryquilter 10-02-2010 03:39 AM

I think this would make a great quilt for a guy. I love it.

Me too! I would forever try to grab the shirt to fold it!

Friendly Quilter 10-02-2010 04:52 AM
