City of Craft Wants You to Design the 2009 Swag Bag!

For the first time ever, City of Craft is inviting craft enthusiasts to submit imagery for this year’s Swag Bags!

City of Craft Swag Bags are handed out to the first lucky 100 attendees and we pack them full of fantastic goodies from local and international craft artists and indie publications. People line up before we open our doors in the freezing cold to receive them, so we want to give them something special this year to take home.

If your design is chosen, you will be rewarded handsomely with crafty prizes and fame via our website, blog & other press outlets.

Cotton totes will be printed with your design on the front and are printed with one colour. Designs should be no more than 8.5 by 11 inches at 300 dpi. We accept jpegs and pdfs. If you aren't sure what sort of line thickness is needed for silkscreening or you have any other questions just send us an email.

If you think you have the winning design, let us know by sending your application to swagbag [at] cityofcraft [dot] com

The deadline for submitting applications is November 1, 2009 and the winner will be announced November 15, 2009.
