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!

More ears have been crocheted, and four more mini meece bodies knitted. I think that leaves just four more to do, after than any knitting will be on small pumpkins since I want to make some more of those. Got to have something to knit while watching Strictly.

Are you preparing for next Halloween already? *g*

It's never too soon to prepare for next year!

The last three days were devoted to the mass production of Christmas cards. I'm up to 25 now, and still no end in sight.

Remember that wonderful vintage Stamperia Christmas paper pad I accidentally bought twice? Well, these 25 cards were all made of the spare pad, and I still have enough for at least ten more from that pad only. I've also dug out some other motifs I've been hoarding for years, so by careful estimate I'm going to end up with 40 cards - all being different.

With those, the felt Christmas ornaments and the popsicle stuff from last year I'll have a fantastic spread to offer on the charity fair in December - unless Covid or some other unpleasant circumstances interfere. *fingers crossed*

Excellent progress! You should have a good selection for the sale. Hoping it goes ahead this year and raises lots of money!

[wiseheart]

That would be good indeed! There are so many places where help is needed.

It's always good to raise money for such causes.
