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!

Chores, home improvement projects, ugh.

I finally took some time to iron and pin the first XL pillowcase this morning, so I have been slowly hand sewing in between loads of laundry today.

pale orange lily (love this one)



Red hybrid tea rose which seems to use some colors that my puny human vision cannot detect. It has a shimmer. And smells like damask rose with ripe plum and lemon? I am not sure I can fully explain it. But it's a dark fruity smell with a sharp lemon.

Good luck with your first giant pillow!

The lily is stunning, and I really want to smell that rose. *mourns the lack of scratch and sniff computer screens*

Having the option for scent would be so helpful. I bet I could find out the hybrid just from what it smells like.

[badly_knitted]

It really would come in handy. You could chose roses to order by having a sniff first to see if you liked the scent.
