Check-In Post February 24th 2023

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!

Today I started my craft project early, in the naive hope that I can finish that particular page for all three baby books. Well... I have (mostly) finished one of them. Not exactly stellar results, but there are so many little details that needed to be done that time simply flown away from me. As I mentioned before, I don't have access to all those shiny, ready-made tags, pics and other embellishments YouTube professionals simply take out of a package.

At least I've made a lot of small embellishments in advance, so that hopefully will speed up the process in the immediate future. Hope dies last, right?

I being mostly finished is better than none! You'll get there.

Eventually, yes. I just don't like working with such a close deadline.

[badly_knitted]

Deadlines are stressful.

I'm sure you'll get them done, just at a certain point it will get extra frustrating.

[wiseheart]

Yes, I'm quite sure, too, that I'll get them done. I'd just prefer to have more time. There are so many tiny details, and making everything more or less free hand instead of just popping it out from some kind of perforated paper pad takes forever.
