Description:

The June 2015 Fandom in a Bag swap is BBC Sherlock.

Step 1: Step 1: Please list in the comments your favorite characters, episodes, moments, or any other preference you may have.

Step 2: After partners are assigned, check to see what your partner likes. You can follow-up with a message if you need to know more. Then scrounge up, buy, and/or create items that fit in a bag. Your bag must contain at least 7 different types of items although more is certainly encouraged (PLEASE try to make it look full). Different types of items means 5 ATCs, 3 pins, 2 postcards would be 10 items but only 3 different types. The swap requirement is for 7 different types in a bag.

Some ideas of themed items: stickers, ATCs, postcards, toys/action figures, comics, note cards, pins/buttons, magnets, jewelry, trading cards, legal music CDs, charms, ornaments, books, bookmarks, address labels, postcards, plushies/stuffies, promo stills/autograph cards, fainfic, zines, etc.

More specific ideas: knitted Sherlock scarf bookmark, case book, fake ID cards/ID cards stolen off Mycroft, Mrs. H's tips for dealing with eccentric tenants, CD of violin music, John's blog articles, your favorite quotes, plushie/stuffie hound.

Be sure to check your partner's profile so you don't send anything he or she might be allergic to.

Step 3: Put the items in a ziplock-type bag. Size: 1 gallon (measures about 10 inches by 11 inches or 28cm by 26.5 cm). You can decorate the bag or incorporate the bag into something (mount it or sew something around it). If you want to make or buy a bag instead of using a ziplock plastic one, that's fine as well, but it should be at least a gallon in size. All items you gather or create should fit into the bag (if a couple are too big, that's fine).

Assemble your bags during the month of April and please send by the deadline (June 30).

NO FLAKING ALLOWED! All flakers will be kidnapped by Moriarty and Sherlock will not come looking for you.

I'm brand new to this group and my first swap is for my ALL TIME FAVORITE fandom ever - I am SO in love with everything Sherlock. Some ideas for me - I literally do love everything Sherlock. All of the characters, all of the episodes, all of the little geeky references - mustaches, hounds, pink suitcases, Christmas time. You cannot go wrong with me if it has anything to do with Sherlock. I am also a huge lover of anything London - especially the Union Jack.

I am so happy I saw this before it closes! Sherlock is my favorite show!

I will love anything Sherlock-related, but I am looking for a couple more ATCs to fill my Sherlock page! ;)

I love the "Sherlocked" witticism, all things Benedict Cumberbatch, the exchanges about different characters thinking Shrelock/Watson are a couple, all the amazing funny quotes (especially when they're about dissing Anderson), Lestrade, Molly Hooper, and Magnussen!

OOPS! I should add - please do not send any chocolate - it will be too hot here in New Mexico and it will just be a melted blob :)

My favorites are Sherlock and John, but I love pretty much everything about the show and it's characters so there's really no way to go wrong :)

I love Otter!Sherlock and Hedgehog!John sooooo much. Would LOVE an ATC or anything else with the two of them as otter & hedgehog.

I love BBC Sherlock. I ship Johnlock and John/Sherlock/lLestrade. But I love canon ships as well. My favorite episode is still "The Hound of the Baskervilles" but I've seen S3 and love it as well. I've been to 221B Baker Street in London (on my birthday, a few years ago). You can't go wrong sending any Sherlock-related goodies my way. If you have any specific questions, send me a message!

I LOVE the BBC Sherlock series because I love Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman. I'm also a fan of Jeremy Brett. Anything having to do with both Sherlock Holmes series will work for me! I'm just a HUGE fan. Thanks so much!

I love everything Sherlock and John! Mrs. Hudson is a hoot, too! Actually, anything you send me re: BBC Sherlock, or any derivation of Conan Doyle's Sherlock even, will be awesome!
