Bootstrap is a bit of a hammer and probably unnecessary for a site design as 
simple as this. It's a mostly-static website with little to no CSS3 and only 
the bare minimum of JavaScript. I also think it's a fair assumption that people 
using patchwork are working on PC-class devices with an evergreen browser. This 
means we're not taking advantage of the things that Bootstrap offers: 
responsive design, mobile first design, browser compatibility etc. I can find 
countless blogs that would suggest Bootstrap is pretty much unneeded in this 
case.

*However*, while I dabble in webdev I am by no means a front-end developer. I 
may also be suffering from Not Invented Here (NIH) syndrome. Updating the site 
with a minimal amount of frameworks (say, HTML5 Bootstrap + JQuery + custom 
CSS) may well be more trouble than it's worth. For this reason, and this reason 
alone:
