Eligibility: The Project Selvage competition, presented by Michael Miller and Spoonflower, Inc., is open only to persons who are 18 years of age or older. In order to submit a design to the contest, each participant must also be a registered member of Spoonflower.com at the time of entry. Proof of age may be required. This Promotion is open to people all over the world, although certain elements of the prize -- such as transportation to and from the Fall Quilt Market in Houston -- may be offered only if the winner is a US resident.

How to enter: You must be a registered member of Spoonflower.com in order to enter a design submission for the Project Selvage competition. There is no cost or fee to register or to enter. The contest is limited to one (1) design submission per person. The design theme for the initial round of submissions is baby fabric for boys. Designs must be original and cannot have been entered in previous Spoonflower contests. All previously entered designs will be disqualified and ineligible to be selected. Multiple entries may be disqualified.

Expectations of Entrants: The theme for the initial round of the contest is fabrics for baby boys. Should an entrant’s design advance to the final round he or she will be expected to submit five additional fabric designs as part of a collection. Contest winner will be expected to sign a contract to work with the team at Michael Miller to develop and finalize the collection -- including additional prints -- and to prepare it for manufacture and marketing.

Ownership of winning design: Participants in this contest must agree to grant Michael Miller full ownership rights to their collection should they win the contest. Neither Spoonflower nor Michael Miller assert any rights over submitted designs not designated winners. Entrants are free to delete designs they have uploaded to Spoonflower at any time.

Prize: Winner will receive a contract with Michael Miller to produce and market his or her own fabric collection, a $1000 advance against royalties for sales, and -- if the winner is a resident of the US -- domestic air transportation and lodging to attend Quilt Market in Houston, Texas, October 29-31, 2011. Sponsors cannot provide transportation expenses for non-US winners. The winner will be the collection that receives the greatest number of votes by the time contest voting closes at noon EST on May 4, 2011. All decisions by the Sponsors as to the eligibility of voters, votes, or submitted designs are final. All prize elements are subject to the contract signed between the winner and Michael Miller.
