Hello to all members, 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?

Note: I'm just jumping in for badly_knitted while she is having computer problems. Therefore the daily check-in posts might lack certain details. Please, bear with me, and happy crafting!

I've finished the sunny yellow little angels and sorted out some more tiny sequins. All little silver stars are now picked out of the pile; tomorrow I'll start on the snowmen and perhaps do a bit more sequin work. Not too much, though, since we've got choir practice on Tuesdays, which means I need to leave the house in the early afternoon. If the physiotherapist isn't too late, I might even get into the little shop for sewing supplies before practice, but that's by no means certain.

I am gradually learning my way around the new computer, but using it is giving me a headache. Hopefully I'll adjust. I've adjusted screen brightness as low as it will go, but I could do with a lower setting. Most annoying is that they expect me to pay to use MS Office. Tech companies squeeze people for every penny they can get. It's disgusting.

No sign of Cyril the Squirrel today, but no squished squirrels on the road so hopefully he's still alive.

I had grand plans for the day, but when my mother and I got back from our errands, my uncle was sitting in the driveway, a week early, and we have no clue how long he's staying.

It was a successful knitting day, however. I practiced my stitches, I learned how to cast off, and I made a small stockinette swatch.
