• Patterns should be PG-13 or less.

• Please check our Star Wars pattern archive and Google "Star Wars Quilt, quilt pattern, quilt block, etc." BEFORE designing your pattern to ensure you're not accidentally recreating someone else's work.
• Designs based on other, non-quilt artwork art (including fan art) must include written permission from the artist. Alterations of other, original pattern designs will not be included on fandominstitches.com.
• Please note that all fandominstitches.com patterns are free for personal & non-profit use. All designers are volunteers. Patterns are considered derivate art which we do not sell or compensate for sharing patterns.
• For legal reasons, we do not share patterns from designers who also sell fandom themed patterns or other unlicensed merchandise.

• Submit your pattern using our submission form no later than Thursday, May 2, 2019 at Noon CST (U.S.). 
• PDF patterns can be hand drawn or created using graphic design software as long as they are clear and easy to follow. For helpful information, including software suggestions, see Be A Designer.
• Please include your name (online or real), pattern finished size, your blog, social media, contact information and/or anything else you feel is pertinent to your pattern.

Porg by Michelle Thompson All submitted patterns will be posted on Saturday, May the Fourth, 2019 right here on Fandom In Stitches to share with our quilting community!
