I think this season I’m finally going to join. With @Tapestry’s tracker pages it should be less confusing than I originally thought.

I got my pins and ribbon yesterday :heart:

Thank you @LovelyMiss! They’re already on the board in my office, right next to my desk, where they give me a smile every time I look at them :heart:

Hiding it just in case someone hasn’t gotten their ribbon yet.

Nice display. So positive and motivating. I also got mine. I am going to attach it to the mixed media piece I submitted! This was so much fun.

Hey y’all! Just popping into say I’m sorry my responses have been sparse and lagging! If you know where I am located and what I do for a job, you might have an idea as to how come. :grimacing: I’m seeing messages, though, even if I don’t get a chance to respond, so please consider this a big, giant HEART to all of you!!! :sparkling_heart:

We have some special events coming in February and March, so keeping doing awesome stuff and stay tuned! :grin:

Just realized it’s February today, I totally meant to get the prompts up early but … did not. :smiley: They are up now!

I agree. Today is an odd day to be the start of February!

Sadly I did not finish my shawl that was my goal for January, because I’ve decided to add a border to one side that I didn’t originally plan for. But I finished the steps before that and I love how it’s turning out!

Craftlympics-

Would it be possible to get a list of the events for the Olympics, special Olympics, & Paralympics?

I am having a hard time finding the Special Olympics events. (maybe i’m just having a bad Google day)

Honestly they make it harder to find than it should be. Here’s a link to what appear to be all the Special Olympics events, winter and summer. But at least some of them are clearly winter sports.
