Check-In Post July 8th 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!

Wow, they're lovely! I especially like the red and black ones, I love that colour combination, and the pretty peach one. Your ribbon bows are so cute!

Good luck with finishing your monster fic! I really don't know how you do it, turning out something so long in such a short time!

I don't know either! It just grew a life of its own, but it's been days and days of work. Getting there with only a little bit near the end to go now and to tidy up the beginning. The rest I'm pretty happy with given the tight turnaround and a few other things vying for my attention right now.
I'm glad you like the red and black cards. This was my new paperstock so still lots to experiment with. I've got one other paperpad I haven't touched yet, waiting for inspiration from other papers to run out first before distracting myself with something else new and shiny. Best birthday gifts in a long while.

Yes, some fics do sneak up on you like that, but even so... You are awesome! Mine seldom go past 2k. You can do it!

Yes, with the lovely Ausstralian birds and plants. I truly think craft supplies are some of the best gifts anyone can receive. It's always such fun to play with them =D

Only 16k in the end because I'd miscalculated. Didn't think I'd written 20!

*grins* I saw, but that's still massive! I'm looking forward to reading it if I can ever find the time.
