I do, but it’s hard when I haven’t had the time to sit and think, and I’m also indecisive about what to make ![]()
But I think I know what medium I want to work with so things should be easier

Oof. ![]()
Oh hahaha you meant medium as what type of craft sorry….I’m currently sleep deprived ![]()
See I understand that in theory…but I so seldom manage to stick to the sizes. I will contain myself to one item per partner, though. But I’m a slowwwwwwww crafter so there’s no way I’ll stick to an hour. Smallish?
It is now 43 C / 109 F here and I can confirm that I Do Not Like It. ![]()
I totally get that, once I get into enjoying a craft I could keep at it for hours. Crafting for mental health knows no bounds right now.
I’ll be working on my partner’s this weekend. I’ve been brainstorming and have a plan of action!
I just want to take a moment to thank all the past participants who made the last swaps so amazing. Check out all the gallery views R1-4 are getting!
I’m also in the same boat as you, slow crafter, and plenty of distractions
so I’m going with a “this is a project someone could finish in an hour, so it’s fine.
Some of that is probably me
. I’m in a big old-gallery-perusal phase, and those are some of the ones I’ve been hitting.
Even if you look 10 times it only counts you once ![]()
I finished my positive affirmation item today!
Will write the card and choose the treat over the weekend.
I got some card blanks today. One item is well underway, the other one is still not making the transition from idea to plan. I had hoped to find a starting point today, but nope… two second hand stores and a craft stor later and I’m back to shopping the stash.
I’m 60% done with one of my partners’ items and really pleased with how it’s coming along. It’s not a direct quote/affirmation from their Pinterest, but affirmation adjacent. Either way, I’m having fun!
Ok, one item down! It’s affirmation inspired since yarn has its limitations. I’ve started on the item for my other partner, hoping this idea will work…
We got some snow over the weekend, which is fairly rare for us & it is just so beautiful! I have been staring at it all day
I finished the small, it didn’t take very long so I’m thinking of adding another one! ![]()
Checking in. I’m still here, have one package done, but it’ll be the weekend before I start crafting for @jemimah hopefully inspiration will strike before then!
We have a sender, we’ve got a gallery!
How is everybody else doing? If you haven’t replied to the semi-regular check-in requests, please do so. Today’s question is how you’re feeling about the send out date Feb 9, is anybody feeling like they’ll need an extension? We’ve had a relatively short crafting period and even though this is a small swap, life happens. I can add another week if the consensus is desirous of more time.
Other than that, what sweet thing are you doing for yourself this week?
I have a date to go to abakery cafe with a neighbour, good coffee and pastries and they always have day-old sourdough loaves for a couple of bucks. I don’t eat much bread but toast is nice with poached eggs so I’d like to have that for one of my solo breakfasts while I’m out here on vacation. Here are a couple photos of the beautiful trees coated in hoarfrost the other day. They were like this for miles and miles around, it was absolutely gorgeous.
Inspiration has not struck yet, although I am mulling over a couple of ideas. Hoping to get started tonight or Saturday at the latest!
My sweet thing… I made dinner plans with long time friends that I haven’t seen in a while!
