Bring the Quilt to an Event! Request the Leather Quilt Please use this form to request the Leather Quilt for display at your event. This form is just a request - a formal contract with details will be sent to you upon acceptance. Reservations The Leather Quilt is reserved on a first-come, first-served basis. You may reserve The Quilt up to one year in advance, but no more. Events that historically host the Quilt are granted a three week buffer period so no event can change a date to supersede reservation precedent. Shipping & Return You are responsible for shipping fees to and from your event. We ship The Quilt to your event approximately two weeks prior, addressed to the event producer or a recognized onsite caretaker. The Quilt must be shipped back within 3 business days of the conclusion of your event. Responsible Parties There must be a designated legally responsible party (usually the event producer) and an approved onsite caretaker for The Quilt. The onsite caretaker must be trained/approved by the Curator and coordinates setup, take-down, repackaging, and onsite safety; and management of all volunteers to set up the quilt. This is roughly 8 hours of volunteer time, please consider compensating the onsite coordinator. Display & Frame Requirements The event is responsible for providing a frame that displays The Quilt safely. As The Quilt has grown, we've encountered accessibility and safety concerns, so at minimum: Heavy-duty pipe and drape frames with 2" uprights, 1.5" crossbars, and 18"x18" bases weighing approximately 35–60 lbs Crossbars extended no more than 8 feet (at 10 feet, even the best crossbar will sag under the weight) Folding tripod bases are not acceptable Displays no taller than 9 feet, due to tipping risk Common configurations are 32x9ft, 36x8ft, and 42x7ft; displaying each half separately also works well. Contact us for current Quilt dimensions — we're happy to help you plan. Pipe and drape frames can generally be obtained from host hotels or event vendors. Handling & Care This is a historic piece and many patches are irreplaceable — please handle it with care. The Quilt must be accessible to attendees, who should be able to take photos of and with it if they choose. Please plan your display area accordingly. You are permitted to arrange the columns to suit your event, but PLEASE keep square rearranging to a minimum; if it is absolutely necessary to move a square you are expected to put the Quilt back in the order it was shipped to you. The Quilt must never be displayed outside. Adding Squares Many attendees wish to add a new square at an event where The Quilt is displayed. All additions must be pre-approved by the Curator. Allowing approved additions at the event is at the sole discretion of the event producer. If allowed, additions must be supervised by the onsite caretaker so no damage occurs, and complete documentation must be on file before a square is added. Display Options Due to its size, events may request The Quilt in full or in half. On rare occasions, and depending on the travel schedule, we may accommodate requests for smaller vignettes to fit your space and budget. Questions If you have questions about shipping costs or providing an adequate frame, please contact us before reserving The Quilt for your event — we're here to help and want to work with you wherever possible.

< BACK TO QUILT Les Bon Temps The group Les Bon Temps (LBT) was formed in April 2012 in Mobile, Alabama by Mistress Amirah. The name of the group is a take on the French phrase “Laissez les bon temps rouler” which translates to “let the good times roll” and is heavily associated with Mardi Gras which began in Mobile. Les Bon Temps translates to “the good times.” LBT is dedicated to having a good time through education and risk aware consensual kink. We host munches and educational events for members and guests from other BDSM, Kink, and Leather groups along the Gulf Coast and beyond. We are a pansexual, BDSM, kink, and Leather group and welcome all persons of all genders, identities, sexualities, races, and roles. LBT’s first munch was on April 17, 2012 at a Ruby Tuesday’s in Mobile, Alabama. Our first educational demo/class was on April 21, 2012 and was on canes and paddles. Our second demo/class was on May 26, 2012 on the history of the Leather lifestyle and BDSM. The group added coffees to the roster of events in July 2013 and along the way play parties were also added. In 2015 LBT expanded and began holding events in neighboring Baldwin County as well after the passing of the leader and closure of the group meeting there. Over the years LBT has given back to the local community. LBT has organized a toy drive during the holiday season as well as fundraisers for lifestyle community members dealing with loss of home due to fire, unexpected funeral costs, cancer, flood victims in Louisiana, Hurricane Michael victims in the Panama City area, and severe illness. LBT’s logo was designed in approximately 2014/2015 by Mistress Morgayne utilizing the group’s colors of red, black and grey/silver. LBT introduced patches and pins with group colors/logo for its tenth anniversary in April 2022. LBT’s patch for The Leather Quilt was made by Bulldog Custom Leather in the Atlanta, Georgia area. 00186 Home: Mobile, Alabama USA Status: Active Founded: April 2012 in Mobile, Alabama by Mistress Amirah Panel History: Added in-person at South Plains Leatherfest in Dallas, Texas USA on March 23, 2023.
