Check-In Post October 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!

Handed off two quilts to recipients, both have been hanging around for a decade if not more. Each seems very delighted by their gift, so YAY.

Started sewing a toile for a dress pattern I was hoping to make for a frocktails event on Saturday, and will probably finish the toile but not the dress. So I'll probably end up wearing the toile.

It's been an education in sewing with sheers and slippery fabrics, though!

The quilts are beautiful.

Good luck with the toile and the dress!

Both are gorgeous, so glad the recipients were pleased, it's good to have your efforts appreciated!

Yikes! I can imagine slippery fabric would be difficult to work with. Good luck!

Both quilts are so very beautiful! I could never make something like that.
