I’ve decided to go ahead and change the Community Quilt project into a page rather than a blog post and share the progress here. Hopefully this improves the quilt’s visibility on the blog.
Read on and see the quilt so far plus the rules and terms to participate. I’ll be updating this space every time we finish a row of 4 squares, so keep sending me squares, and keep an eye on this space. A big thanks to everyone who’s participated!
Don’t forget to share the project with the rest of the community so that they can participate! Give them this link to direct them to this page.

Join in on the Creatures Community Quilt project for 2015!
The point of this project is to show your appreciation for the Creatures Community by adding your own 120 x 120 square to the quilt. Make your mark, show off your creativity and share your love of Creatures and the Community.
Over time, watch the quilt grow as members of the community send in their squares. At the end of the year, I will ‘stitch’ all of the rows together and post the finished quilt online. Squares will be placed in the order that they were submitted. See the rules below for more details.
If this turns out to be a popular activity, I’ll repeat this next year!
I know I only frequent the Creatures Caves, but members from ALL forums are welcome to contribute to the quilt project so long as the quilt is PG-13 or lower and is Creatures related. Please send all squares to kezune_twitch@hotmail.com. I will host the files here on your behalf to avoid hot linking.
What are the rules?
– Maximum 10 squares per member. There is no minimum number, of course. This gives everyone an equal chance to express their adoration for the games and the community that they bore.
– Rows can be reserved but all squares for that row must be completed on submission. Once you’ve sent in your row of squares, it will appear below the current row in progress, if there is one.
– I will not space out your squares for you if you send them to me in batches. If you would like to space out your submissions, please send them to me one at a time on different dates. Perhaps you could make monthly, month-themed submissions?
– Quilts must be related to Creatures. They can depict fanart, poems, screenshots, or anything else you can think of that is related to Creatures, including agents and works in progress.
– The squares must be no larger and no smaller than 120×120 px. Uniformity will make the quilt nice and tidy.
– You can share your squares in the Graphics section of the Gallery or host them yourself.
– I will not add your name to the squares so if you want your name included on them, you must add them yourself.
– Deadline is December 31st, 2015. You have plenty of time, but don’t forget!
How do I start?
For your convenience, I’ve already created these files for you to use. The .png file is only meant to be a guide and you don’t need to use the stitching. You can create your own stitching if you prefer, as well.
Below that picture, I’ve provided a link to the .PSD so that if you have Photoshop, you can use that.
The quilt squares can be made in any image editing software.
