If anybody in the league is particularly crafty, it would be awesome if we could donate a square to this Roller Derby Quilt project by Dreadnought of the Boston Derby Dames!:

Hey there - I'm a skater from the Boston Derby Dames, and I'm working on a collaborative quilting project focusing on roller derby themes and imagery. I'm trying to get skaters from around the country to contribute squares featuring their names and numbers. Is there any chance I could get a small contribution from your league?

This quilt is made up of 8" x 8" squares representing all sorts of roller-derby related themes. So far squares dedicated to specific skaters, refs, teams, and leagues make up the bulk of the quilt, and it's growing pretty quickly. This is a great way to use up old uniform scraps, shredded fishnets, and other derby bits and pieces. I have a few images of the quilt-in-progress here:

If you break out in a rash when someone mentions the word "craft", I'd be thrilled for an old uniform scrap, or even your league name and number written on some fabric in sharpie. I'm even happy to make a square myself if you'd send me some old uniform parts or merch featuring team and/or league names.

Any ideas for bits and pieces? I wonder if Gez can screen our logo on a plain bit of fabric?

Hooli cut up her red tee for the bout so she has the front of it with the logo - that will work!
