Check-In Post June 8th 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!

Today I took some extra photos of the dragon blanket. Laying it out on the bed and standing on the step stool was as good as I could do. If anyone wants to see more photos of that, here's my Imgur album. https://imgur.com/gallery/HAhmbX4


Since that was the end of a big project, I devoted this morning to tidying craft stuff. I also took the large nylon project basket I'd been using for the afghan outside and hosed it off, so no dust.

This afternoon I repotted a couple African violets.

Sounds like you’ve been busy

I'm trying really hard to make Wednesdays be my "little stuff" day. Monday - Tuesday are my husband's days off and we've usually been working on a house project.

That just looks awesome and the mosaic border is the perfect finish.

Oooh, I love African Violets, they're so pretty!

Mine have been a bit ragged since we moved. Trying to turn it around. They don't like change and especially at first I was not taking good care of them.

I'm sure they'll feel better as they settle into their new pots.
