Check-In Post November 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!

Two more mini meece bodies knitted and a few more ears crocheted. A few more days and I'll start sewing this batch up, then hopefully I'll have the energy to move things and locate the felt. At the moment I'm too exhausted for that much strenuous effort on top of the everyday stuff I HAVE to do.

I hope you get some rest soon ♥

[badly_knitted]

I'm resting most of the time, but the tired has settled in *sigh*

[wiseheart]

That's the problem with chores: they take your time and energy away from more palatable things. *hugs*

[badly_knitted]

They do indeed, and I don't have a lot of energy at the best of times.

[sister_raphael]

big hugs

[badly_knitted]

Thanks *hugs back*

A friend of mine does Tuesday evening co-working streams on Twitch which I usually write during, but I had evening plans so I did my writing earlier in the day. My evening plans cancelled, so I ended up knitting during the co-working stream instead!

Also, look who arrived and are making friends already!

[badly_knitted]

Yay! Looks like happy meeces are happy!

Love their new friends!

[wiseheart]

A very nice company indeed! :)

[sister_raphael]

cool!

progress on my sampler!

progress on my Schitt's Creek project!

and I genuinely can't remember if I posted that I finished my latest kpop project, I'm sorry! It's been a tough few weeks, ugh.

[sister_raphael]

Great work! I love Schitt's Creek. It's hilarious!

[badly_knitted]

Three amazing projects. I'm especially loving the new sampler; it's going to be gorgeous!

[wiseheart]

You have been very industrious! Chapeau!

[sister_raphael]

I can't remember if I mentioned that I got the first two layers of gold paint on the R shield. I'm gearing up to add a browner paint on the Squirrel, so maybe Friday night Date Night With My Cat might be the night!

Outline done:

[badly_knitted]

Good luck with both shields. The red one is looking great!

[sister_raphael]

Picture of the gold. Still background and highlights to do, but LOVING the red and gold vibe!

That's looking better than ever! I saw the outline on your journal before you did the filling in. I love red and gold together.
