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: What's the most complicated project you've ever tackled?


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!

*deep breath* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, so good news that I'm not sure I related here yet: nephew's graduation party is not until end of June, so I have time to finish his blanket. Yay! I'm still working on niece's blanket, though, and there's still a lot left. Her party is June 1st.

I lost a few days without putting much work in, because life threw a curve ball at me and it's been ridiculously busy at our house. It's for a good reason, but still: busy.

I managed to put in 3 rows yesterday, and have done 2 today so far, with the plan to do another 2. My spreadsheet is saying I need 3.66 rows a day to finish on time. With everything going on, I'm really not sure I'll be able to finish by her party... but I am going to try my damnedest to do so!

That sounds like a lot of work for such a short time. Good luck!
