You can go here... http://www.sportslogos.net/team.php?t=156 and find a pic that you could put on a graph (http://www.incompetech.com/beta/plainGraphPaper/ ) Hope that gets you started in the right direction. I have not been able to find patterns for sports teams anywhere, I have had to make them up.

Due to the expenses involved in obtaining the licensing arrangements required under trademark law, there are very few patterns available for this sort of thing.

Just so that everyone knows, there are many sites that offer graphs of team logos, yet they do not have the appropriate licensing arrangements or other permission from the trademark owner in place. It's a violation of our forum guidelines to post links to those sites.

I'm not aware of any sites that offer properly licensed patterns for team logos. So you may have to resort to creating your own pattern. In that case, it's perfectly acceptable for you to post a photo of your finished item here (in fact, even encouraged, as we love to see the work of our members), but it would not be acceptable to post the pattern itself that you create.

I know nobody even attempted to do anything that would be in violation of our guidelines, but I like to use every opportunity available to make sure our members are aware of our position on trademark issues.

I was just recently perusing through Ebay, and I did see one book for sale that was licensed by the NFL and it had patterns for all the teams in it. (Afghans and matching pillows, if I'm not mistaken)

I'm trying to find it now....
