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!

Another chunk of flowerbed renovation this morning. It's a big L shape with 5 roses, I have finished 3/5. It wore me out a bit more than the other day. I have a couple appointments this week and unfairly, regular chores, so probably won't get to continue for a few days at least.

Just finished the last kitchen scrubby in the set. I may select some thread for making holiday cards after supper.

You'll get the whole flower bed done eventually. Life does get in the way of other projects though.

Oooh, do you have the designs picked out?

Weeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllll there are three I've been thinking about.

Shooting star I saw last year just after the holidays. I really like it, but it has a lot more rows than I usually do for a card. I have a couple of other thread projects I'd like to get done this fall, so probably best for next year.

The swirly heart motif that I made recently - that would make a completely different card (I usually make snowflakes) and I already know I like it.

Granny square Christmas tree - quick and easy, I think I will do this and add a couple beads and buttons if the heart doesn't look good in thread.

They all sound lovely!
