Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


Today's Question: No question today.


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

Today, I have knitted 6 more meece bodies and crocheted another 6 pairs of meece ears. That will bring the second batch of meeces up to 25 because 19 seemed a weird number. Just got to sew up and stuff the bodies, then I can get on with attaching ears, making tails, and stitching faces.

Experimental CD angel

[wiseheart]

Today I had the time to try my idea of an angel head, made of an old CD.

The first version turned out very bizarre, so that I removed all embellishments for later and threw it into the garbage bin. Later I decided to give it another try and re-made it, and this is the result:



It is still a tad bizarre, especially with the shockingly blue googly eyes, but at least it is now recognizable as an angel... or so I hope.

The third initial is stitched, so one more to go, then I can add them to bookmarks.
