Check-In Post August 26th 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!

Managed to get outside and do a bit more sorting in the greenhouse, so I've stuck a few seed trays out in the driveway. A couple more pots have gone. Aside from that, I've just been writing. Now for a few more jigsaws.

[smallhobbit]

Steady progress is being made. Enjoy your jigsaws again!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks. I found some really fun jigsaws, including a porcupine fish =D

One more Nativity scene finished - seven more to go. I also transformed some of those stupid thread buttons into hangings for my felts, so I'm content.

[badly_knitted]

Well done!

[wiseheart]

Thanks. It's finicky work, but I'm getting there.

[smallhobbit]

That's very good.

[wiseheart]

Progress is progress. Small steps count, too.

Almost midnight and home from an event that I only went to for today. I did get some sewing on the Ham Kirtle done and managed to get a lot of photos of the outfits I took. The Trotula Hair Powder experiment was more successful than I expected and I'll be writing about that later. Hot shower and bed now.

[wiseheart]

Oh, congratulations! Looking forward to the photos.

[badly_knitted]

Yay! Glad the event and the hair powder went well! Get some sleep.
