Check-In Post January 14th 2024

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!

I'll be stitching later today - I have a zoom every Sunday with a friend and we craft & talk. I'm also going on a work trip next week with long plane & train rides, so I plan to take the guinea pigs and get some work done. There's a part of me that wants to take a second project, but it's not like I'll get DONE with the guinea pigs.

Just how many guinea pigs are we talking about?

[celli]

There are three and I've finished two! I've been working on them for literally months, though. (Partly because inches and inches of turkey rug stitch are kind of boring, so I've been periodically stopping to do other things.)

It's good that you can use your travel time to work on a project. The guinea pigs will be very well travelled!

Hope you enjoy tonight's chat and stitch session!

[celli]

I love that! Yes, they've gone with me on a couple of business trips! :D

[badly_knitted]

They'll be earning their own air miles soon!

[darkcedars]

Yeah, stick with the one project on a work trip.

Thank you! I needed someone to tell me that!
