2012 Tea Towel Calendar Design Contest - check out the amazing entries & vote for your favorites

Spoonflower regulars look forward to our tea towel contest each year quite a bit because it invariably generates some amazing work from our design community (and a wealth of easy-to-sew holiday gifts for your friends). Each calendar fits on a fat quarter of fabric and, despite the sideways orientation that is a by-product of how we preview things, looking through these 148 entries is a real treat.
