Submission Checklist & FAQsBefore submitting your entry to this thread, make sure that:
- Your entry has your username somewhere inside the square

- You are posting it by the deadline, 25th of December, 2021, 11:59 PM EST.
A. For this event, please do not create your own patterns - you may only use one of the patterns provided. However, you can make slight edits to the existing square, as well as recolouring the line art. You also do not have to stay within the lines exactly! As long as your design doesn't exceed the edges of the square.
Q. Do I have to draw something, or can I just colour in the quilt?
A. Please have some drawn aspect - even if it is just designing additional patterns, like stripes or polkadots, within the line art. The design itself should be festive or winter inspired.
Q. Would we be allowed to make an actual quilt square out of fabric?
A. You may use fabric to collage as long as the fabric doesn't have pre-made patterns on it (which would count as a store bought design). If it's just solid colour then that should be fine! Please make sure you stick to the quilt pattern above and that your design still has a drawn aspect to it.
Q: How will favourites be selected?
A: The staff will review and nominate entries to go to a community poll where the community will then vote for their favourites
Q: How will I know if my entry is accepted?
A: Your entry post will be marked with a green 'Accepted' reaction if it has been accepted. You may not edit your entry once it has been accepted.
