Check-In Post January 10th 2023

[badly_knitted]

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!

Still writing, but still to weary for crafting. I plan on reading again this evening while the wind blows a gale outside. At least the rain wasn't as bad as forecast. Still a good day for staying indoors as much as possible.

[wiseheart]

A wise decision. :)

Another day full of non-crafty stuff, but at least I've cut out the lining pieces for the quiet book pages. Tomorrow promises to be quiet, so I hope I can finish the rocket page; perhaps even start lining and sewing together the pages. *fingers crossed*

[smallhobbit]

Yes, the weather's fairly atrocious. Hope you feel less weary soon.

[smallhobbit]

You've made some progress, if not as much as you might have liked.

Here is the owl I promised earlier in the week:

Have to conserve what energy I've got for the things I have to do, including going to a doctor's appointment on Thursday.

[badly_knitted]

I shall hope that tomorrow goes to plan for you.

[badly_knitted]

I will hopefully when I finish the treatments for various ailments that all seem to have hit at the same time. *sigh*

[badly_knitted]

He's so sweet!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much!

Hoping for a quiet day for you!

<3 for the weariness!

I am having trouble with my current project - I'm learning turkey stitch for it and doing poorly, ugh, and also the stitch I picked for the background doesn't look as good as I had envisioned and is taking me EONS to do on top of that. Hmph.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you!

[badly_knitted]

Thank you! I even tried to nap this afternoon, which I never do.

[smallhobbit]

Just looked up turkey stitch - rather you than me!

[badly_knitted]

That sounds disappointing, and turkey stitch looks complicated. I hope you can get your embroidery to look the way you want!

[sister_raphael]

Just a little more on the surcote lining while I think about the collar.

[sister_raphael]

A good day to be inside indeed!

[sister_raphael]

As always, you are making great progress!

[sister_raphael]

It's so cute!

[sister_raphael]

The more you do, the easier it will get in the long run. Hang in there!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much!
