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!

Of course, as soon as I put my car away and came indoors, it stopped raining and the sun came out. =/

That is Murphy's Law for you. But at least you got the glasses ordered.

I'm glad you got a tasty treat out of it at least! ♥

I'm sure the glasses will be wonderful :D

Hooray for new glasses!

Great news that you've found some new glasses that you like. Absolutely typical of the sun/rain though!

I've finally got around to make the fish-feeding part of the deep sea page (at least one of them), decided to redo one of the jellyfish because I wasn't happy with it, sewn on the other one as well as one of the seahorses. That should be enough for a lazy day, right?

That sounds like plenty - very impressive!

It sounds like a lot to me!

I finished the son's anniversary card and it's been hand delivered today, ready for the anniversary tomorrow:

I did another four seams - these ones on the Restless Hands Of Sel quilt.

Sometimes you take the win and RUN WITH IT.
Thursday, May 12th, 2022 07:13 am (UTC)
Well done - that sounds like great progress.
Thursday, May 12th, 2022 11:48 am (UTC)
It's all I can seem to manage right now amidst everything going on!
Thursday, May 12th, 2022 08:01 am (UTC)
That's beautiful.

Thank you!

Finished Eeyore's feet and worked on some grass (this is the cross-stitch project). Didn't get the rest of the thread wound but that's not a problem - there's no rush as I want to finish Winnie the Pooh cross stitch before starting anything else.

All good progress. Is the grass easy or different shades of green?
