Check-In Post March 25th 2022

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!

I forgot to check in yesterday because I'm a dorky old lady, I am! But I worked a lot in these two days. The seal pages of the quiet books are making progress: I've finished the page bases, sewn on the yellows stripes representing the sand in the circus arena and the bunting, as well as the dais (daises?) on which the seals are supposed to sit. Eventually. I've also made the 8 balls (4-4 for each seal), which included making buttonholes - not as painful as sewing Velcro but almost as boring.

Tomorrow I'll attempt to start on the seals themselves, although Saturday is always full of household chores. We'll see.

Well, I forgot to make the check-in post until late so that's probably why you forgot to check in. I made sure to get it up at a reasonable time today.

You're making excellent progress, sounds like you got a lot done over the last two days. I hope you'll find some time for crafting tomorrow but some days are just busier than others.

Oh, I'm always too late checking in. I usually go offline shortly before 10pm because Mum and I watch the re-runs of the GBBO with religious devotion. So I usually check in from my iPad - unless I have photos to share. IPad is aging and cranky and won't let me insert photos anymore.

Ah, but I didn't post that day until after 11pm. Even if you'd been online it probably wouldn't have helped.

You are doing really well with making these - I shall look forward to seeing the finished pages in the not too distant future.

Your words in God's ear, my friend!
