The May Challenge

Welcome to the May challenge! It's theme time again and this month we're inviting you to create something that is Inspired by Fabric.

For this challenge we're defining fabric as a piece of cloth/material that can be cut with scissors and made into wearable or household items. Your chosen fabric can be something already made or it can be a piece of fabric yet to be transformed. You could find yourself inspired by the pattern in your bedroom curtains, the colours in your favourite top or some cushions you see while you are shopping - use your imagination!

For your entry to be accepted you must email a photo of your chosen fabric along with a photo of your creation.

THE PRIZE:

This month our sponsor is Celia and she's offering £15 to spend in her online shop Jencel!

HOW TO ENTER:

Simply email a photograph of your entry to Liz at ottbs@live.com along with any other info we have asked for. The challenge runs until Midnight on Sunday the 31st of May and the winner is drawn and announced the following day. You can email your entry at any time during the month. The challenge is open to beaders worldwide.
