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: Looking back at last year, which of your completed projects (or WiPs) were you most pleased with?


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!

Haven't yet ordered the baby blanket yarn - a student broke my glasses, so I had to order new ones instead. Whee. But today I put the second coat of paint on the dice tray, finally, so as long as it looks good when it's dry, I'll glue in the felt next and it'll be ready for the D&D campaign I'm running for my students in a few weeks.

Even though I didn't finish it, I'm honestly proudest of the progress I made with the beach cover-up. It was a really ambitious jump and I still love it so far. I keep seeing it and being amazed that it's something I made.

Oh, that is really annoying about your glasses. Still, you've done your work, and that's what counts.

Sorry to hear about the glasses. It sounds like you got a lot done and good to know that you're proud of your progress and project results.

Sorry about your glasses. You're making good progress though.

Excellent :)
