Check-In Post June 19th 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: Do you like to finish one project at a time or do you prefer having several on the go?


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 stayed up way too late last night cutting fabric, and I still have more to cut, but I'm pausing that while I prep what I cut yesterday. Busy busy.


Of course, today I'm tired, plus I have a headache, but I will not surrender! Sheep number 4 is finished except for the backstitch, which will hopefully be done this evening. Will try to get to bed earlier tonight. I'm old, I need my sleep.

One more sachet and further processing the lavender flowers for me. By temperatures like 33°C that was all I could do today.

Sewing the occasional seam for the english-paper-piecing quilt.

No crafting or writing today, just cleaning, gathering prompts, and organizing. Well, and get bossed around by Charlie, but that is to be expected. Mimi has camped on the recliner all day, which is unusual for her, she normally spends the day under the bed. (They are cats, if anyone is wondering.)

I'm sure I will be up for a while, so I may get some writing done yet.

When I was on the phone with my mother earlier, she said something about collecting a knitting kit with DVDs and yarn included from my aunt's hoard of things for me. I haven't seen it yet though.
