January 2012 Challenge - January Jewels

Hi everyone

We have decided that to keep people fired up and motivated we are going back to smaller, 1- 3 monthly challenges.

In January we are doing "Jewels in January". We'd love it if you could knit/crochet beautiful, jewel coloured squares (and if you're up to it jewel shapes within the squares) for the children.

Imagine the bright, beautiful colours and shapes that we can create and in turn give the children blankets covered in a wealth of love and precious gems!

The challenge begins January 1, we're not back until the 10th, but I can't wait to come back to lots of "jewellery"!

Have a wonderful Christmas period everyone, see you in 2012 x x x

This is my January Jewel square.  I have chosen to make the diamond the jewel but made the whole square as brightly coloured as possible, as you can see.
