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!

Baby Book #2 is finished!

[wiseheart]

Behold the front cover:



And the last two pages, first closed, then open:





I think I'll sew some cat plushies next, just to recover from all that paper work. *g*

The cover is gorgeous and the inside pages are lovely too.

I was very lucky to have found all those wonderful paper collections at the Aldi supermarket, and for a reasonable price, too. The other side of the coin is, of course, that I always suffer whenever I have to sacrifice some of my pretty sheets for noble purposes... *g*

Yes, it's so hard to cut up and use the pretties!

Re: Baby Book #2 is finished!

[froodle]

That is absolutely beautiful! And also, YES to cat plushies!

Re: Baby Book #2 is finished!

[wiseheart]

Well, I hope they *will* be recognizable as cats, seeing that they are made of two identical pieces of oblong flannel and some felt applications. ;)

Main species: plushie. Subspecies: kitty (optional)

I do love what you've done with the baby book. Have fun with the cat plushies.

Re: Baby Book #2 is finished!

[wiseheart]

It is more of a struggle at the moment, as I'm currently trying to figure out how to make them without any unnecessary work. I tend to over-complicate things.

I'm sure you'll figure something out that will be wonderful.
