Check-In Post February 5th 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: Who do you most enjoy making things for: family, friends, yourself, a special someone?


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!

*hugs* I hope your mood improves soon or that you can at least pinpoint the cause so you can deal with it.

I love the idea of an egg crate dragon. Or ANY dragon, to be honest!

Sounds like the writing is a bit of a struggle. Maybe the fics you hate might be salvageable at a later date when you're in a better headspace.

The cake sounds delightful! Not so sure about the soup though...

Yay, knitting!

*hugs back* Thanks. It is most likely a mix of things.

It should be a fun thing once it's done. :D

I have definitely saved them for later. They have potential.

Thanks :) Despite it's appearance, the soup tasted like buttered baked beets. The color was slightly alarming though.

*confetti*

Hope you're doing better today.

Always wise, you never know how you might feel about them on a re-read. I've written fics I thought was awful and when I've gone back to look at them a few months later they've actually seemed pretty good.

Never had buttered, baked beets but they sound tasty. Very alarming soup though.

Thanks :)

That was a very alarming soup.
