Blog Train Palette/Theme Selections--earlier?

I'm loving the way we decided on December's palette back in late September. It's giving me time to really define and refine the items I'm making. Is there any way we can continue choosing them so we have about two months to work on them, like getting the January suggestions thread going now?

I think it could make the blog trains even more fabulous than they already are, and wouldn't really be any more work, just a shift in when we can start working on them.
