Check-In Post March 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: 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!

Actual crafting: I've finished another five felt eggs, complete with pouches (the bunnies still are on my to-do list); only six more to go.
I call that a successful day. :)

On the bright side, I did figure out a card to make with Lynne Monday, granted it was on the ride over to her house, but we got something done. I got out some coordinating patterned green papers and cut them into 1 inch squares. Then we glued them into a pattern on a goldish yellow card base. I figured it was good brain exercise for her and it could be a card for any occasion she wanted. She turned hers into an Easter card, her son made his a birthday card, and I just added more gold flourishes to mine with the metallic pens I got out for the project. No one really complained about this one, though Lynne is starting to get mean with her personal comments to me. I know she 1) is frustrated with not always understanding the conversation around her & is trying to contribute, 2) not always saying what she means, and 3) is mixing me up with someone else sometimes, but it is starting to get to me a little.
We also know when her surgery date is now. So, I have to come up with 3 more projects between now and then. After that, we'll see how things go.

I hope things resolve in the best ways possible (whatever that means for your situation) soon <3

Well done for coming up with a workable idea for Lynne. Here's hoping there will be some improvement with her after the surgery. It's so hard dealing with people who have dementia. My neighbour had to go through that with his wife, and it was both stressful and heart-breaking.

We're all really hoping.
