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!
I told you to email me and you never did! My feeble brain can't remember these things unless they stare at me in my inbox every day until I complete them. Xena sent me this link to remind me :) Will work on it soon. Don't sew me in next to anyone that doesn't like me, y'know, for their sake.
Hmm... I checked the email I had with Xena and it looks like I had the wrong one. Take your actual email and subtract numbers and you'll have the address of the poor person I was actually contacting! Argh!
Every donation will go towards the cost of self-publishing a book on the quilt. It's a great way to contribute if you'd rather not make a square.

Want to contribute a square? Here's how:
Dimensions:Squares should be no smaller than 5" and no larger than 10" plus a small seam allowance so that I can attach them to their neighbors without losing any of your design.
Materials:Anything goes! I have many squares made of old derby uniforms and merch, but some incorporate odd things like old whistles, used skate laces, bandages, even pieces of old posters.
Imagery:Again, anything goes. Please include your derby name and number if it's a personal square, or team/league name if it represents your league as a whole.
Contact:Email me at rollerderbyquilt (at) gmail (dot) com if you want to know where to send your contributions.
