Check-In Post November 17th 2020

Hello to all members, 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.


Today's Question: What was your most recent crafty purchase?


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 ordered some pretty wasabi tape and some outliner pens for card making. The tape has arrived and I have used some packing Christmas and birthday presents. The pens are still in cyber space. I accidentally ordered two lots of tape so I have packed some for my daughter as an extra birthday present. Other time has been spent frantically trying to find gifts bought months ago, wrapping paper, etc. etc. and then putting it all together and then tidying up after myself. I still need those scrunchies so I suspect they're next on the list.

As I've said, I don't knit, but I do buy knitted things and have now ordered what is probably my fourth or fifth burgundy/plum jumper. Like our mod, I am bad, but really, sorry/not sorry because you need extras for when things need to be washed, don't you?

I hope your pens arrive soon so you can play with them!

I love burgundy and plum shades, I've made myself several sweaters in those colours, and yes, you really need enough of them so you have some to wear while the others are in the wash.

Oof, I love washi tape and all the amazing designs you can get on it! So tempting!

I got confused and ordered twice. So daughter and grandson will find a few rolls in their 'stockings'!
