Check-In Post December 28th 2021

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!

A bit of a battle today because I had other things I needed to do, but I managed to get another 5 meeces made. 10 more top reach 100, I'm getting there!

Heeee! That's something different! I'll read it when I have the time. Bit busy at present...

Sounds like fun. I'll give it a try, although the yarn names don't ring a bell with me.

I decided to make little girls' handbags for the three granddaughters of my friend Elise. They're gonna be like these:



Just from differently patterned sheets of felt and with a slightly modified design. I'll keep them as Easter gifts, most likely, but I feel like sewing something for a change, and these are very easily made. I've already cut out the basic design, the rest is lots of blanket stitches in front of the telly. *g*

I also worked a bit on the nameless and most ridiculous craft project.

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Very, very cute!

[wiseheart]

Thank you!

[badly_knitted]

That sounds like a lovely idea, I look forward to pictures once they're done.

[wiseheart]

As soon as all three are finished, I promise.

[badly_knitted]

I'll wait patiently!
