Check-In Post June 15th 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: At the request of new member cora... In light of new members, where are we all in the world? No need for exact locations, just general country is fine! Leaving this question open for a few more days so anyone who hasn't answered it yet still can.


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!

Hello, and welcome to the community!

Do you have any crafting projects on the go at the moment?

Currently working on a felt needle point. It’s been more challenging than expected and it’s ridiculously simple but first project in a long time.
Baked fresh babka this morning for Father’s Day. What are you working on?

That sounds like a fun project! I'm not good at needlepoint though.

At present, small spiders to hand out to the kids at Halloween. They'll be hung from thin elastic so they can be bounced. I also have a sweater I need to finish. It just needs the neckband and sewing up, but that will have to wait. Also want to get back to some small cross stitch owl designs, but the spiders take precedence. I want at least 150 ready for Halloween. I know that's months away, but I have other non-crafting things taking up a lot of my time =(
