The goal of the challenge, as described by Cherrywood Fabrics, was:

 

"Gritty urban areas can be the setting for colorful layers of graffiti. This form of expression dates back thousands of years. Why do people engage in graffiti? How can you capture this graphic art form in fabric? Can you do it with just eight colors? We encouraged you to push yourself creatively and think outside the box."
