Check-In Post - May 9th 2025

[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 change crafts with the season or stick to the same crafts year round?


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!

Yay! Glad the greenhouse arrived! Also what's a goddess garden? Am curious.

The goddess garden consists of a circle of bricks with various flowers and thyme inside. In the warm season, it has a goddess statue in the center, which I just put back outside today.

From May last year, you can see the statue. This post has a picture from earlier this spring, sans statue, with crocuses blooming. Next time I take pictures and post them, I should have something of the current version.

It'll take a couple weeks to fill in, but the moss roses are already blooming. :D
