Check-In Post February 22nd 2021

[badly_knitted]

Hello to all members, 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!

Back to just 4 rows a day on the arm warmers.

slowly, but surely!

[badly_knitted]

I'll get there in the end. Damn online jigsaw puzzles for being so tempting!

[medievalrosalie]

Getting there!!

[badly_knitted]

Every little bit helps!

[medievalrosalie]

My fabric is arriving tomorrow!!!! Everything on hold until then!!!!

[medievalrosalie]

And I broke my phone screen and toilet, but not at the same time, so having to sort those out instead of sewing.

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Those are two important items! Good luck with getting them fixed/replaced!

[badly_knitted]

Oh no! Disasters seem to be doing the rounds!

[m_findlow]

Aw man! Bad days around here are totally contagious! It's officially confirmed!
Glad to hear they weren't concurrent breakages because that would be a story to explain!

[badly_knitted]

Waiting for things to arrive is so hard!

[medievalrosalie]

And neither of them arrived today!

[badly_knitted]

That's so frustrating!

I did a 1000 piece puzzle of Tobermory, a town on the Isle of Mull in Scotland over the weekend. And okapi minisculus (age 5) did the other dinosaur foam clay figure for show and tell today.

[badly_knitted]

What a fearsome wee beastie! (the dinosaur, not minisculus).

Lovely jigsaw! The sad part is always having to dismantle the finished article and return it to its box.

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

They are both wee beasties, to be honest. I think the dinosaur looks a bit like Elvis.

Thanks! Yeah, it does take longer to disassemble than I want it to.

[m_findlow]

Ha ha ha! It does have a major cowlick going on!
The jigsaw is lovely, too. I like reflections of boats on the water and sea side towns.

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Yes, not certain what's going on there, but it was his show and tell, so I let him do him.

It is a nice scene, I agree!

[badly_knitted]

I'm sure they're lovely though.

Disassembling is a lot less fun than putting jigsaws together, unfdoing all that hard work!

[medievalrosalie]

wow!!

[stonepicnicking_okapi]
