>It’s too late in the evening (or early in the morning) to take pictures but my Red Thread Sampler by Bent Creek is finished. All the snaps and buttons are on and it’s ready to wash and take to the framer.

>From Time Sucks to Believing in Priorities…
>I heard a great speaker this week who said the number one reason we let Time Sucks get in the way of our priorities is deep down we don’t believe they are really priorities. We let go of what we really want in the future for what we want right now because in the back of our heads, we don’t believe we will really achieve the life we desire. I think that hit me harder knowing that the speaker was talking about what it took for her to leave an abusive relationship and become the incredible successful woman she is today.

>Facebook and other time sucks….
>Hear that giant sucking sound…that’s my time going down the drain. I’ve been spending too much time on Facebook this year and based on my posts, it hasn’t been constructive. At the beginning of the year, I eliminated all my games except Treasure Madness and Bejeweled Blitz. Since then, I’ve added Puzzled Hearts which really doesn’t do anything except give me puzzle pieces for pretty pictures.

>AGH!!! Four stitches short….
>I ran out of Bunny Hunny 4 stitches short of what I needed for finishing The Red Thread sampler. I was thinking I could cover the spot with a button since I’m not about to go buy a new skein of Crescent Colors for 4 stitches. Then it hit me I should check my other Mirabilia kits since that is where the Crescent color came from in the first place.
And I scored! I found another skein of Bunny Hunny in a kit I hadn’t done yet. So I have what I need to finish up Red Thread Sampler. I should wrap it up this week. Yes, I should be working on my Carousel ponies but I wanted to finish something for Finish it February and this one was just so close.

>The year of TW Carousel horses continues….
>So far I’ve made my January goals…or close enough that I can call them done. Winter has some beads and backstitching to finish the first pages. Interestingly enough, along with working on my ponies, I’ve done quite a bit on the Red Thread sampler. In fact, I only have 2.5 segments until it’s completely finished and since each part only takes a couple hours, I could end up pausing the horses for a day or two and finish it up. After all it is Finish it February.

>Quick update, more to follow
>Summer has her color chart, brand new stretcher bars, and a new box of tacks. The goal for February is to get the fabric mounted and start stitching.
