We have a fun challenge and a great prize to share with you today and we hope you'll take this opportunity to jump in and join us as a Fandom In Stitches Designer!
The Rules:
- Design an original quilt block using a pixel grid (mosaic) format. (There's some nifty software that can get you started here and a FREE class on Craftsy here).
- Please note: designs must be your original creation and not based on the work of another artist or taken from another website. Edited to add: "original" means we are asking you to not use a chart or grid pattern already created by someone else for craft or quilt purposes.
- Blocks can be as simple or complicated as you like and made using any size grid, but you MUST make a sample out of fabric.
- Designs can be images, words, etc. from the fandom of your choice, keeping in mind that all Fandom In Stitches patterns are PG-13.
- Patterns can be drafted using drawing or quilting software or hand drawn, as long as they are clean and easy to understand. (More info)
- All patterns should include a full color grid (example) AND number of squares to cut out of each color fabric (i.e. red = 28, white = 76, etc.). Since these types of blocks are all generally pieced the same way, additional piecing instructions are optional.
- A photo of your completed block AND your pattern file are required to enter.
- Patterns should be in PDF format (preferred for easier printing).
- How To Enter:
- Post your photo to the Fandom In Stitches flickr group by
