Check-In Post July 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: 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!

13 spiders made so far today, 2 more to do! I got started earlier than usual =)

My cats are finished. All six of them. *And* I've cut out and glued on certain important background pieces for Pages 5 and 6. I'll still have to stitch them on, but it's nice to see what they'll look like when they are finished.

Sewing on XL pillow 3 of 3. I mended some today (put a button on, crocheted up around the spots on a rag rug that had unraveled).

The hand sewing has grown on me.

I've been AWOL again but I've embroidered, I'm working on a crocheted Pac-Man ghost, and I'm sewing a pocket on the back of my solar system piece so it can be hung at the first art show at the end of the month. Lots to keep me busy/distracted.

I did it! I finished the woven blanket I've been working on and I gave it to its intended recipient, my friend at my grad school program who is graduating this semester!

I finished the last rows of the shawl today. I'm saving binding off for fiber group because the library director wanted to see how that worked, which isn't until the end of the month.

Now, maybe I'll work on my other neglected projects until then, lol.
