Sign ups are open!
Please copy and paste the text from the box below into a comment.
But first, a little explanation on what we need in the sign ups and why. First and foremost, the sign ups are mostly for us to find the best matches we can with what people want to receive and want to offer. Please be as specific as you can in your request. Gifters, if you need more info, please come to us (homemade2homemademod@gmail.com) and we’ll be your go between.
Name: We don’t need your real name right now. We'll ask for that when we get your address for your crafter.
Email: PLEASE make sure it’s one that you check regularly. There are a few times throughout the fest that we will need to get a hold of you via email.
Things you geek about: We need to know what fandoms, hobbies and interests make you happy. Please be specific as you can, from favorite color, favorite character, favorite song, etc etc...You don’t want a Gryffindor scarf if you’re in Slytherin now do you? Or let's say you put that one of your interests is horses, but you are terrified of unicorns, you wouldn’t want any of those showing up on an embroidered thing, would you? Also, if you don’t want fandom related things, or only want fandom related things, let us know that too. Same goes for interests and hobbies.
Any allergies/postal restrictions/simple DNWs: Allergies--we need to know all the things you can’t have from food allergies to scents and fibers. Postal restrictions--are there things your country won’t let be sent through the mail? Sometimes this differs if the packages are sent internationally or within the same country. Simple Do Not Wants--This is the place to put things you just don’t like, crafts you really don’t want to receive. Not into baked goods? Don’t want to receive the same type of craft that you make? This is the place to tell us.
What kind of crafter are you? What are you willing to gift? Are you a potter or a woodworker? A knitter or a candymaker? Do you dabble in a bunch of things? Are the things connected by medium? If so, are there things you DON’T do? Do you not want to do fandom specific things? Only want to do fandom specific things?
What country do you live in? and Are you willing to ship internationally? These two go together. If you live outside the USA, and can't ship internationally for whatever reason, we might still be able to match you. There were at least two participants from every country represented last year. Get in touch with the mods to talk more. This year, we need everyone to track their parcels, thanks!

Things you Geek About (interests, hobbies, fandoms):
Right now I'm hovering inbetween fandoms, but Clint Barton (Hawkeye) still brings me much joy (and ClintCoulson). And Natasha! MCU in many flavors, except for all the stupid writing in Endgame which I pretend was just a bad run of comics and ignore it. Tony Stark and Winter Soldier are probably by second favorites, though I am also very fond of Eddie and Venom because how could you not love those two dorkloser weirdos?
I am also very into watching sports. My teams are Dallas Cowboys, San Jose Sharks, and Oklahoma Sooners. I live in Oregon Ducks territory and while I am slowly accepting the inevitable, I am not willing to admit it in public just yet. *cough*
I also love sharks in general, and octopuses. I love steampunk aesthetic.
I tend to prefer things that are practical or useable, or which are decorative in a way that don't need a huge flat surface to display (as we don't have much free space.) Wall hangings are tricky in that we can't put holes in our walls and have to use those sticky command hook things, so not too heavy.
Lastly, because of my allergies and our high humidity/mold environment, I have to be able to dust it or wash it, or something appropriate for the item. If that makes sense? I don't need zero dust, but if I can dust or wash it, or put it away inbetween using/looking at it (like a junk journal), that would be best.
Any allergies/postal restrictions/simple DNWs:
I have some food allergies and restrictions so it would be easiest to not send food.
I am allergic to perfumes, fragrances, except for those which smell like food (cinnamon and vanilla are fine, for example. Flowers and pine absolutely not.)
I don't wear jewelry so wouldn't have a use for it.
I am allergic to many kinds of yarn as well, so if you are a fiber artist please use machine milled and cleaned superwash wool or wool/acrylic blend. No cashmere, alpaca, mohair. No wool with animal oils still in it.
I am fine with small amounts of cat or dog hair if your furbaby wants to help! Please no smoke, though.
What country do you live in?
United States
Are you willing to ship internationally?
Canada or Mexico only
What kind of crafter are you?/What are you willing to gift?
For this year I will only be offering to quilt - a small wall hanging/table topper, or lap quilt.
Are you willing to pinch hit if necessary?
Cannot, sorry.
What about if shipping is paid for?
No, it's the time crunch not money.
If you participated in last round, who did you create for/who created for you?:
I made a quilt for killing_rose and received a wall hanging from laridian
