Check-In Post May 9th 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!

10 rows of lace pattern on my sweater.

No gardening even though it didn't rain. Didn't feel up to it.

It's coming along well.

Thanks! Slow but steady progress! I can't complain about that.

I did some doodling/sketching of ideas for possible future embroidery projects.

[badly_knitted]

Oooh, that sounds exciting!

(I can't draw to save my life).

I can do moderately good line art, but was never much good at the colorwork (paints, colored pencils, digital, etc.). I’ve been trying to figure out how to apply my line work to embroidery without trying to just do embroidered paintings, if that makes any sense. I think I finally got some solid ideas.

[badly_knitted]

Yay! I hope your ideas work.

[medievalrosalie]

Cool! I love drawing! Making art/embroidery of your sketches sounds great!

[medievalrosalie]

Getting there!
