Title: [Auction] Ethereum Quilt 20"x34" by Crypto Quilts
Post by: Spazzer on May 18, 2018, 06:09:09 PM
Hello all,

Information: This Ethereum quilt is only the second Crypto Quilt made and the very first Ethereum quilt. This quilt will be auctioned off starting today until May 27th, 2018.
Note: If the auction is unsuccessful I will be listing it as a [Raffle] in Goods > Collectibles.

The Ethereum quilt was designed by my local quilt guild and quilted by a solo quilter. This entire project is following the success of the first Bitcoin Quilt (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3230961.msg33630903#msg33630903).
All proceeds will be going to the quilt guild. You can find more information about the project: www.cryptoquilts.org

The suggested use case for the quilt is a wall hanging display. No two quilts will ever be alike.

Description: Ethereum breaking through the darkness. 100% Cotton all three layers, Top, Batting, Backing and Thread. Custom hand stitching on black boarder, white middle and black/grey centre.
Size: 20"x34" inches - 51x86 cms
Starting bid: 0.05 BTC
Bid Increments: 0.001 BTC
Any bids within the final 15 minutes will extend the Auction by an additional 15 minutes.
Excluded from Bidding: I may exclude bidders at my sole discretion.
End date and time: May 27th, 2018 (5/27/2018) - 00:00 hrs UTC (https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?p0=1440&iso=20180527T00&csz=1)
Payment methods accepted: Bitcoin and Ethereum. Bids will be in Bitcoin only.
Additional information: Quilt is escrowed with minerjones (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=346731). Payment will arranged with escrow. Quilt is currently in transit. I will never ask for direct payment through Private Message.

What happens if I throw it in the washer and dryer, 26 times a year for 20 years?

A quilter will roll over in their grave. Preferred washing is by hand. If you must machine wash use a gentle cycle and cold water.

Do not use machine dryer. Lay flat to dry.

One more, why is this one said best to hang from the wall... I thought the point of a quilt is to be used as a blanket.

Is there anyway I go to a store and "feel" what this would feel like and it's texture and all that

The size of the quilt (20x30) and the purpose for which it was designed. Even full size quilts can be displayed by hanging. It comes down to how the owner wants to use the quilt.

It's 100% cotton material. The best option is find a local fabric store and go "feel" the fabric and any quilts on display.

Congratulations on getting your hands on another one of these beautifully made quilts. I'm honestly pretty jealous, because I've been wanting one of these quilts since I first saw the finished product of the first one. It's a shame that I don't have a spare .05 to grab one of these bad boys.

Would there be any chance at a comically small version of the quilts for a low price? Maybe one that would even fit in a picture frame. That might help drive more sales and interest, with the buy-in price being more accessible.

If I hit a Bitcoin Lottery, I promise I'll buy a full-size version.
