Check-In Post September 17th 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!

The one I'm using has a foot pedal; I'm sure I'll get the hang of it, but I haven't yet got the steadiness down. I keep trying not to be too hard on the pressure but it won't do anything unless I put more pressure on it than I'd like, and then I startle myself because I feel like it's going too fast. I did in fact screw up the whole thing today (I'm just trying to do straight lines of thread on an old pillowcase) but I figure it'll just take practice.
