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!
Mr. X. Stitch is an outstanding blog about contemporary needlework and embroidery. He did a sweet writeup of the quilt just the other day. I'm thrilled he found my little blog!
Definitely check out this site. I lost myself in the various articles and links I found there, even though I should have been spending time hanging work for the show. Having wireless internet access in the gallery could be quite enjoyable, if somewhat counterproductive...
There's also a great Q & A on the Boston Derby Dames website. Thanks Mona Mour for your kind words!
