Check-In Post March 7th 2024

[badly_knitted]

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: Which craft that you don't already do would you most like to try?


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!

Not feeling great today so no crafting done. Going to read fanfic.

Took me 5 attempts to post this check-in. The 403 errors are a nightmare!

Hope you're feeling well soon!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks =)

Awww, sorry to hear that you are feeling unwell! Have fun with fanfic.
And yes, the 403 errors can drive one up the walls!

[badly_knitted]

thank you.

I don't mind so much on the comments, I can just click back and try again., usually works on the third or fourth attempt, but when I'm posting s fic of a check-in I have to re-do tags, icon, and the community I'm posting, and often any links in the post every single time. Took 7 attempts to post a fic to a challenge community yesterday. Then I sent a report to dreamwidth, who are hopefully looking into it.

I should have worked on the baby books, as they are supposed to be done by the end of April. Instead, I've cut out the parts for 14 of these little cuties, which swallowed my usual nap time. But since I bought the felt for the eggs today, I simply couldn't resist... because I don't have enough unfinished craft projects going on. But these will go to friends and family with small children as Easter gifts, so I've just told my conscience to shut up. ;))

[badly_knitted]

Aw, sweet Easter bunnies! They look fairly straightforward to make, it will be good for you to have something to do that takes less effort and time than your other projects!

[wiseheart]

Actually, I've just realized that it will take more effort and time than I thought, but at least this is something I can do in front of the telly, which is always a time-saver.

[badly_knitted]

Well, it's still less complex than the quiet books and the song book.

[wiseheart]

That is certainly true. :)
