Check-In Post June 4th 2021

[badly_knitted]

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!

20 rows on my sleeve!

[wiseheart]

Great!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks! Only another 110 rows plus 8 rows of shaping to go!

[smallhobbit]

You're hurtling up it!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks. Feels more like limping, but progress is good enough.

[wiseheart]

Considerable headway with the paper owls. They all have their eyes and bellies - now I can start selecting paper scraps for the beaks and the wings.

[smallhobbit]

Hooray - how many are there altogether?

[wiseheart]

30, to begin with. I have some spare parts in case more are needed.

[darkcedars]

So many owls!

[badly_knitted]

There can never be too many owls though. ;)

[badly_knitted]

Yay! Excellent progress!

Over this week I've been sewing badges onto the bag I use for Brownies - I had 11 to sew on, which took ages. The stitching is not good.

[wiseheart]

It looks pretty, though. :)

[smallhobbit]

Thank you.

[darkcedars]

I can't tell on my phone, ha!

Figure with something like that it's more important to be secure.

[smallhobbit]

I can always do some repairs if necessary!

[badly_knitted]

That's a lot of badges! As long as they stay put, that's the important thing.

[smallhobbit]

The bag doesn't get used very much, so I'm hopeful.

[badly_knitted]

I think it looks great anyway.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you :)
