Check-In Post - February 22nd 2025

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 kind of crafting supplies can you never resist buying?


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!

Feeling better today but not great. Still managed to crochet the first half of a second spiderweb wristlet. Also I finally remembered to pull the cube book out of the book press and actually take a look at it.

Hope you'll be fully recovered soon, and yay for managing to keep crafting!

The wristlet is so cool, very Halloween.

I can see what you mean about needing to use card that isn't as thick for the book, but that is such a fun idea!

The wristlet is really cool. The lady who plays the piano when our choir sings has something similar to cover the surgery scars on her hand. It's practical and looks elegant.

I was wondering what a cube book might be. Interesting; but I guess fairly complicated to make.

Glad to hear that you're feeling better today.

Once I understood how the book came together it was much easier to make than I anticipated, for which I am grateful. I love the wristlets and the pattern designer had all kinds of options. Maybe one day I'll make some for myself...

Very nice!
