Check-In Post March 12th 2021

[badly_knitted]

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: No question today.


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'm now 70% of the way through my cross stitch. And bee three has one wing - one more wing to go and they'll be ready to go to my mother tomorrow for Mother's Day.

Great progress! Hope your mum loves her little woolly bees!

I'll have to lok into getting that knitting book myself. Sounds like it has some great designs in it.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you. The book's got quite a wide selection of easy knits.

[badly_knitted]

Sometimes easy is just what I need.

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Oh, I didn't realize they were for your mother. That's sweet.

[smallhobbit]

It's hard to know what to give her, so something small and homemade seemed best.

[badly_knitted]

I'm sure she'll appreciate them. My mum always loved handmade gifts.

Wow, great progress!!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much.

Great progress!

Maybe someday I’ll pull out the cross stitch again... just wasn’t my cup of tea but I love the pattern I have and I want to put it up in Enting’s room eventually.

It needs a lot of concentration I've found. Whereas knitting I can listen to an audio book at the same time.
