Check-In Post March 27th 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: If you were only allowed one craft, which would you pick?


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!

I went through all the designs I kept out that I want to stitch, and at least half are designed for Anchor threads. So I've made a list of all the threads I need to stitch those designs, and now I'm going through my threads to see which ones I've got, and which I need to order. Eeep!


I also did more stitching for my sister's card. There are three shades of green for the stems and leaves, I've stitched all of the darkest shade, and most of the second one, but I ran out of thread in my needle so I decided that was a good time to stop for the day. Hoping I can finish the stems/leaves tomorrow.

Good grief, how are your eyes holding up? I'd have gone blind by now.

Magnifying glasses that clip over my own =)

I also have a pair for close up work that light up.

Ahhhh inventory day!

[badly_knitted]

Yep! And I'm betting most of the threads I need I don't actually have. Don't know yet as I've been reading fanfic instead of doing inventory, but I'll get back to it in a bit.

I ned 26 skeins *headdesk* Could have ben worse I guess, but it's frustrating when I have the numbers either side of the one I want, just not THAT one.

[spiralicious]

That's going to be quite an order!

You are making excellent progress :D

[badly_knitted]

Yeah, I need 26 skeins >.< That's gonna cost!

Thanks, I'm pleased with how well it's coming along!
