Check-In Post - June 2nd 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: We all probably have multiple WiPs, but which of yours has been hanging around longest, waiting to be finished?


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!

Didn't manage any scrapbooking last night but I managed a bunch today, so that was good. Also over the weekend I turned some old recipe cards and a recipe tin into a spellbook for the wizard in our new D&D game, which was kind of fun! Not very fancy but pretty cute for a wizard lol.

Well done scrapbooking! And the spellbook sounds cool!

[nagi_schwarz]

The spell book is really just a recipe tin full of recipe cards but instead of recipes they contain D&D spells.

[badly_knitted]

Which is cool! And useful for the player.

You are amazingly industrious. Where do you find the time for all this?
And yeah, the spellbook sounds very cool indeed.

Thank you! I mostly sneak crafting in when the toddler is asleep or happy playing by herself, as the baby doesn’t mind kicking about on a blanket or in a swing when I do crafty stuff…or I just wait till all the kids are asleep lol.
