For this week's challenge we asked designers to create an original family crest, or coat of arms, for their own family and to turn that into a fabric design. As is the case with many of our more outlandish challenges, this one drew somewhat fewer entries than usual, which means that voting should be pretty quick. Perhaps everyone is still recovering from the mob of entries in hand-drawn contest a couple of weeks ago!
