The Roller Derby Quilt is a collaborative art quilt made by roller derby skaters, refs, volunteers, and fans around the world. The goal is to get squares representing individuals and teams from every league worldwide. So far there are over 100 squares!
Last night I got a great email from Viva Violence of the Mission City Brawlin Betties:"I think this is such a rad project. I stumbled across your blog some time ago and was in total awe. Your idea stuck with me for some time, until it was time for my team to get our coach (Dita de los Muertos) a gift for end of the season. So I had all the girls make a square (& I added some simple stencil filler squares) and assembled it for her. Thanks for inspiring me. I've attached a couple of pics in case you're interested.

How cool is this? I love looking at the details on each square and checking out the skater profiles to see who made what. What an amazing gift for a coach!
