I’m curious… How many people have figured out who the thief is yet, or strongly suspect they know who it is? Don’t spoil it here! I just want to know who thinks they got it.

ETA: Nevermind, I just saw your post in the other thread 
.
Is today (aka on the 2nd) too late to join in? I’ve been waffling because I don’t strictly need to be sent stuff to be able to make a junk journal , but if it’s still open I’ll get you my form.

Yes!!! Send in your form @megwell! I didn’t need at least eight huge bins of junk journals supplies either, and yet…
Variety is fun!

Bingo question: Would I be stretching things too far if I counted a project made (entirely) with embroidery floss as a project made with yarn?
Note that this is toward a secondary bingo. I’ve got a good line on one without it, so the answer just affects whether I may be able to swing two.

Yes, that works, and isn’t even a stretch! 
From Wikipedia, “Embroidery thread is yarn…”

Does anyone want a sneak peak of the junk journal kits? I’ll be sending out six of them, and plan to add another one to the Raffle, if anyone wants one and didn’t get a chance to claim one. 
They are jam-packed with cool stuff, and I’m so excited!

Holy crap- here it is, the end if another round, and I’ve done practically nothing. I missed out on a lot of fun stuff, too. But, after a difficult week, I’m giving myself permission to spend the day crafting. I have a few projects finished, a few partly finished, and a few easier (hopefully) ones to make.
My “get your butt out if bed” alarm just went off, so we’ll see how I do between now and midnight!
I’ll give myself an early win and post a couple of completed items first.

Good luck! My alarm went off, but I’m still snuggling a cat.

Where does it tell us how many points we have?
Great question! Thanks for the reminder - I meant to include that info!
Click on your spreadsheet link and it says in the top left corner. Depending on when you submitted your final projects for the season, it may not be fully updated yet. (You can add in any points on the entry form that you know you’ll receive.)

For anyone getting a junk journal kit (or anyone who just wants a tutorial), I made a huge post here about how you might put your books together.

Well, I got a few things posted, but not as many as I had on my list (16!). It felt good to actually make things again! So, I didn’t want to stress myself out by trying to do all of the things in one day. I have to spend tomorrow cleaning, but I’m hoping to start carving out some time each night to work on projects, so hopefully I’ll be around more in the coming months! I have so many long overdue projects to finish. My goal is to not buy anything for the projects for the Fall Games. My overall goal is to not buy anything for the month of October (besides food and essentials), but if you saw the state of my craft room, you’d agree that I shouldn’t need to buy more craft supplies!

Hey y’all! There are some folks who made Anniversary posts and some who may have qualified for the Be Kind or other pin events. I’m going to be ordering pins in a couple of hours, so see if you qualify for any and send in your form NOW if you’d like to claim them. If I don’t get your request by Noon (central) today, I won’t be able to send the pins, even if you earned them!
Summary
I’m just tagging folks in case anyone missed it earlier (tagging doesn’t mean I know you qualify, it’s just an invitation to check! ).

Hello!
Is there a chance to get the pins at a later date? I’d like to claim mine all at once to help cut mailing costs for you, since I’m in Canada. I haven’t earned all of the pins I’d like to earn yet
