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!

Managed to get an hour or so out in the garden, squeezing in among the gooseberry bushes to tackle some massive brambles, so I had gooseberry thorns jabbing me everywhere and impaled a finger on one, which is still sore. Gooseberries are vicious. Got a lot of bramble thorns in me too, so gardening was rather painful.

Didn't have time to do any cross stitch, which is maybe just as well considering my perforated fingertip. It'd the one I use to push my needle with.

I don't care about any of that though, because I just watched the Dancing on Ice final and when the winner was announced I was bouncing so hard I'm amazed my chair didn't collapse! So happy! YAY!

Glad you had a good evening, despite being attacked by the gooseberry bushes.

[badly_knitted]

Thank you!

Gooseberry bushes should be classed as lethal weapons.

Awww, sorry to hear that you were attacked by malevolent aliens disguised as gooseberry bushes. Wish your finger a speedy recovery. But at least you had a good evening; that's worth a lot.

Evenings like this one make up for a lot!

[yarnofariadne]

Ouch :( I hope your finger heals quickly. And yay for Dancing on Ice!

[badly_knitted]

I think part of the thorn might still be in there. Business as usual then.

So thrilled my favourite won!

Well done on your gardening progress - hope you recover enough to continue your crafting today(as I'm commenting next day).

Glad you enjoyed the DOI final.

Thanks! I might not get crafting done today since it's the last day of good weather, but I'll be back at it tomorrow when it'll be too cold to work outside.

I would have liked a Connor / Kimberley / Regan final, but it wasn't to be. Still, Regan was my number one so I was thrilled he won. =)
