Check-In Post May 8th 2021

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've finished the ribbing for the front of my sweater. Finally!

Not much else to report, pouring rain all day meant no gardening, but tomorrow might be better. According to the forecast though, it'll be rain most days for the next couple of weeks, which sucks. Maybe I'll get more knitting done.

OMG wow! You've been so busy! Woohoo!

I do my best! I get to start the lace pattern on the front of my sweater tonight, yay!

I haven't sewn for the last few days as I had a massive raw sewerage issue at my units, specifically coming up the drain cover and flooding into my back area which was super gross. The plumber fixed that but I had to move fences, storage boxes, garden bed and I've just been exhausted. I did some filming for a festival promo, which was both cool and fun, I've started writing a new talk, and today was Mother's Day and I got absolutely nothing done because I was hanging out with my son and the Grandbabes (we also went to IKEA,) but it was worth it.

Sewing back on the cards this week!

Ewww! You didn't need that to deal with! Glad it's fixed.

Sounds like you've had some fun times as well though, so it hasn't been all bad,

Pouring rain, sick Enting and sick me, so I cross stitched while he was engrossed by his cartoons.

*sends fluffy hugs to you both* Hope you're feeling better, and at least you got to relax with cross stitching.

From Loom to Doom

I accidentally ruined my warp by keeping it in the car too long. I just removed all my yarn from the loom and I'll start from scratch.
