I'm pleased to share this Project of Doom mini quilt, created from the remaining blocks from our PoD Block Drive for charity! Thank you AGAIN to everyone that participated. Whether your block ended up in the larger or smaller quilt, know that it will be loved! This smaller version will be quilted and donated to a child in need through The Linus Connection on behalf of Fandom In Stitches.
We'd like to take this opportunity to invite you, yes YOU, to become a designer for the Doctor Who Stitch Along celebrating 50 years of our favorite Doctor by sharing your own Doctor Who-inspired embroidery designs! Here are the details:
The Doctor Who Stitch Along Design Invitational
- Design an original Doctor-Who themed hand embroidery pattern to supplement theFandom In Stitches Doctor Who Stitch Along designs (all 12 designs will be online by July 31, 2013).
- Patterns can be 3" - 8".
- Test your pattern and take a photo. Only tested patterns will be included on the here on FiS.

The first Friday of each month in 2013!
Curious: is there any way we can change the privacy on the FB group? I know it's supposed to be open to everyone, but I'd also like to be able to post the DW SAL pics of what I'm doing without the person I'm making it for being able to see it :)
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, no. I looked into it, and because it's such a large group, if I change it to private, FB won't let me change it back. I'd suggest saving up your photos until you gift your project. Sorry I couldn't help.
