Check-In Post June 27th 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: 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!

No cross stitch yet, but I'm hoping to start the final sheep in a bit. I finished the 7th one last night, but the face went wrong and I don't know if I can fix it...


More work done in the garden, today was the last of the guaranteed decent weather, it's about to get cooler and wet, so I might not be able to get outside as much as I have been this week. =(

Best of luck fixing the sheep's face.

It's a shame you won't keep getting to spend time outside, but at least you had a good run of it!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks. If I can, I might just remove the mouth.

Hopefully I'll still get out a bit, but probably not as much.

The weather has been crazy lately. We had suffocating heat in the morning and afternoon and a downpour of epic proportions and a drastic drop of temperatures in the evening. Tomorrow is supposed to be insanely hot again.

Good luck with performing plastic surgery on your unfortunate sheep!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks, I need all the luck I can get!

We've gone from 27C to 18C and I'm feeling the sudden drop. The wind today is really cold.

Well, nice job on getting the garden work in that you did. And best of luck with that little sheep's face!

[badly_knitted]

Thank you! I need all the luck for my poor sheep =(

Two more rows on the beach cover-up!

[badly_knitted]

Yay! Excellent!

[jupiter2932]

Oh, nice work!

[wiseheart]

I've battled the bank all morning and the heat all afternoon. Therefore nothing got done today. :(

[jupiter2932]

Hey, those are both pretty laborious entities to battle! There's always tomorrow for crafting :)

[badly_knitted]

Well, not 'nothing', the bank was a big task. Just nothing fun.
