Check-In Post December 13th 2020



Hello to all members, 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: Are you making any Christmas or holiday gifts this year?


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!

Seven Christmas gifts this year, all cross stitch pieces. One 3 x 3 square; two 2 x 1 strips, and four 3 x 1 strips. Here's the last one.
So I'm out of aida, and that's the end of cross stitch for a while. I've already packed up all my thread into my sewing bag and tucked it away in the closet. Three of the gifts have already been sent across the pond, and four will go to the post office tomorrow. I am enjoying the satisfaction of being done with gifts and now moving on to just for fun, no deadline crafts for myself.

Congrats on being done with your holiday crafting.

Thanks. It came out all right. The legs are a bit fiddly.

Yes, I am very happy to be done with gifts, and now I can just have fun.
