Check-In Post January 1st 2024

Happy New Year!

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.


This Week's Question: Do you have any crafting resolutions for 2024?


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!

All my crafting energy today went towards cleaning, attempting to be a human at dinner, and all the various New Year's check ins - Snowflake Challenge, Wrisolutions at ushobwri, the Friending meme at allbingo. I also did the first of what will hopefully be a series of tea reviews, as it's national tea month and last year someone specifically asked me to post tea reviews and I never got any of them posted.

As for crafting resolutions, basically, I want to do some serious stash busting. I know that generally refers to yarn related crafts, but I am applying it to all my craft supplies here.

Sounds like a busy day!

Best of luck stash busting!

[spiralicious]

It was!

Thanks!

Sounds like a busy day, so many things to check in with!

Stash busting should apply to all crafts, because they all result in stashes of supplies that can get too big. Good luck!

[spiralicious]

It was! XD

As far as I am concerned, it does, but people have gotten gatekeepy with the term before. Thanks!

[badly_knitted]

Well, you won't get any gatekeepy nonsense here!

[spiralicious]

Why it's one of my favorite places :)

[badly_knitted]

Yay! 😊
