For this contest, we're awarding all prizes as gift certificates that can be used at the registered store of your choice, and since losing is no fun, we built several ways to win the estimated $20,000 in available prizes.
Grand Prize
We appreciate the time and effort you put into your stitching and wanted to offer a top honor that's worth your while, so our judging panel of designers, store owners, staff and others will be awarding a $2,500 gift certificate.
Stitcher's Vote
Even if you don't take home the Grand Prize, you still have a shot at a $1,000 gift certificate. Just share links to your portfolio with your family and friends so they can vote for you. We've even provided tools for you to promote your portfolio on many popular social networking sites, like Facebook and Twitter.
Most Popular Shop
Encourage your favorite shop to register because the one producing the most entries will earn $100 gift certificates for every entrant from that shop and a $1,000 cash prize for itself. Registered shops will be able to track entries for their locations and rally their stitchers with special promotional tools we built for them.
Store Winners
Everybody hopes to win one of the big jackpots in any kind of contest, but even if you don't, you still have a chance of walking away with a respectable consolation prize. We'll randomly choose a winner in every single registered shop and award each with a $50 gift certificate. It's our way of saying "thanks" for all your entries.
Coupons & Other Savings
Every entry you submit to the Over Two contest entitles you a to a 20% off coupon for your entire purchase at the registered shop you select in your profile. In addition, some shops may use the promotional tools we provide them to offer you other deals and specials to encourage and reward your participation.
Patterns
Your entry also entitles you to copies of patterns we've commissioned two popular designers to create exclusively for this contest. You won't be able to find these charts anywhere else!
Scholarshp
