As some of you know and some of you don't, I make custom quilts. I haven't been advertising directly, and I don't have a website, but we've been pretty steadily ordered up to a 6-8+ week wait.
I wasn't planning on taking anymore individual quilt orders this year, as I'm covered up, and working on building stock for a collaborative quilt model that TiGoat will be retailing through their store, plus clearing the pipeline of half-finished protos that need field testing.
However, I recently came into enough yardage of 2layer eVENT to make a couple of quilts that I think will be unique, and massively useful for those with the need and understanding to put them to good use, so I'm opening up two slots for custom quilts with eVENT panels.
I envision these both ideally as serious winter quilt/top bags, sewn footboxes with an omni-tape opening V shaped closure of single layer fabric to prevent drafting. Depending on the target temp rating, I'll do full lateral draft tubes and collar.
Here's an example of a quilt I made to show you what I mean:
They'll be stuffed with 900fp down.
I've got enough eVENT to do one with a full eVENT outer shell, and one with an eVENT footbox and top strip.
I'll do any target temp below 20, unless you can convince me a purpose where it would be better suited.
I'm only interested in doing these quilts for experienced users or pros, someone that understands the advantages/limitations of this potential design, and has a real use for it.
These will be expensive, but should be one of the most exclusive pieces of gear out there. I'm only making 2 this year, maybe ever.
Contact me directly at javan.dempsey "at" gmail.com if you're interested or PM.
I'll send more pics of my work by request, but I'm guessing that most here that consider this already know it.
Thanks!
