January is SO awesome!!! I love January because it's a well-deserved fresh start, a big, fat break from the festivities. For me, the craziness hits when summer break ends-- the whole back-to-school frenzy in September (for us), then on to Halloween costumes and parties a month later, then on to Thanksgiving festivities a month after that, and then straight into Christmas and the exciting Holiday season for a month solid. January is a big, huge sigh of {ahhhhhh} relief. January says, "Well done, my friend, and now you get to send the kiddies back to school, curl up with some hot cocoa, grab a project or a new book, and enjoy some peace before Valentine's Day sneaks up on you." {gasp!} Oh, January, you're so good to me!
So it's the end of a beautiful, fun chapter and the start of a new one. {exciting, isn't it?!}
During the New Year celebration, I always contemplate what new thing I'm going to do now that I don't have to focus so much time and energy on Christmas. Naturally, I turn to Pinterest. And, like a miracle, out comes the thread and the creative juices flow.

...unfortunately, when the thread magically appears, so does a curious toddler, and before you know it, the well-organized, labeled, tagged, color-synchronized scheme of your threads become a jumbled mess like this. #$@#%!

ahhhh....here we go. I want a creamy color - going with a monochromatic thing here....rare for me since I'm pretty much a color spaz.

...but not this time. Just wait and see! It's going to be simplistic and pretty--I can't wait to finish!
