What is the Guildmate Gauntlet?
Each month two new fellow dyers will go head to head in a themed dyeing contest, winner-take-all!
This Months Theme.
The theme for April will be “Cinco de Mayo”. We want to see your creativity, humor, and wit shine through in your artwork.
We want to see your interpretation of Cinco de Mayo by using your amazing imagination and talent to come up with a unique dye on the provided Premiere Disc War Pigeon. Anything goes, any style or technique is free game!
This is not a popularity contest, and the winner will be chosen by a panel of judges that are all disc dyers. The winner will receive the entry pot and bragging rights!
