Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

Okay, I have been on a cake kick, most likely cuz I am not allowed to eat the nummy desert any more. Stupid life style change, so this theme will be cake.

What you need to know:
Theme: Cakes and Dessert's
Join up end: April 9th <-DONE
Partners by: April 12th <- DONE
Shipping Date: May 31st (gives us just over a month to work)
Note: Partners will be randomized aside from the ones not able to ship international, or the ones with extreme deadly allergies! They will be hand signed to others, then the rest randomized
Swap type:I would like to do it silent auction style, so no one knows who got who. But as I am new I am leaving this up to you as many may not trust me (I have ran similar things on my doll boards, and never had an issue, but I am leaving this up to you)
If you all choose to not do it all secretive and what not, then you all will send your maker your address in PM. This will be a group choice. Majority vote wins, anyone who is 100% against what the members decided can choose to pull out at that time.
If you have any questions please fell free to Ask me in PM!

Okay if you wish to join please post the following:
Favourite Cake/Dessert: (as many as you wish to mention, this gives your maker an idea of what to make)
Favourite Colour:
Major dislikes:
Willing to Ship International?: Yes/No
Surprise Swap or No? (this means if you all don't want to know your partners I will do the names behind a curtain and you will only receiver the name of who you are making for, and there information. If you all want to know I will post them here who is making for who)
Allergies: (this is important please fill it out so I know to avoid things with this person, and list how sever it is. Example: I am very allergic to cigarette Smoke, so I need to receive a package from someone preferably not in a smoking house. Also food reactions, because if someone sends others it might be food/candy related)
Allergy Inducers:(please include if you have Furry pets, are a smoker, or live with other things people can have an extreme allergy to)
Others: (anything you think I forgot?)

Others: I can also do drawn ATC not just stitched. So if you would rather an drawn piece I can do that too. I would rather stitch but drawing would be cool too!

That sounds fun, and if not for the SAL I'm determined to stay up on and other stitching I need to get done for gifts, plus an upcoming vacation, I'd be interested. I hope you get a good "turnout" for this.

You're talking about a cross stitch related item yes? No baking? lol I suck at baking...

Yes I am talking about stitching lol. =^_~= It would suck to send actual baking through the mail doable but sucky.

So we are stitching peoples fave treats.

I am sorry to hear that your packing and moving it is always stressful. I am sure if this goes well I will be doing another. I think I will ask everyone for ideas on theme. But I like desserts and I know many people do.

So good luck with the move, please take care during that itme of your life.

Well, what's not to like about chocolate?

The side effects if you have too much lol =^_~=

Also I am heading to a convention on the 2nd of April, so please be aware of that. If you join up and don't see your name on the list of people participating, it is because I have yet to find a computer I can log on from. I will however add them when I get home on the 9th.

Last chance to get in to this. I will be signing partners out in the am(It is 10pm here and I just got home it is bed time)

So last chance!

I wish i could I have been on a dessert thing too! but i just don't have the time right now. Good luck and i hope to see some pic soon.

I am closing off the sign ups and now just working on who is sending to who. because I am new, I do not feel comfortable in asking you all for your address' So I am going to tell you who your making for. And later I will get you to send your address to whom you are receiving.

Maybe next time I do one I will make it all secretive so you don't know who you are getting from.

=^_~=

OKAY official who is making for who. I used a dice to find out who is making for who.

Your name -> who you make for!

Phynix -> Mauveme
Mauveme -> Sian311
Perftangel -> Phynix
Nachstenliebe -> Perftangel
Sian311 -> Nachstenliebe


Any questions please ask. As you call can see your name, please pm your address to the maker. EXAMPLE I will be sending Perftangel my address.

Thank you all
