January Projects and January 2013 NewFO Challenge Finish

After Christmas I was really burnt out on sewing (gasp!) so I decided to pick up my knitting needles for a change of pace.
 
I love love LOVE bright bold colors, especially in rainbow form. While I was looking through my knitting patterns (printed off line, ask me if you want the pattern) I came across this circular blanket. I thought It would be a blast to make a rainbow-target blanket. Unfortunately, I did not factor in how many rows of each color I was going to need and just eye-balled it. I came out very small (infant size) but I still love it. I was telling a friend at church about it and she asked to purchase it from me for one of our friend's baby boy (our friend loves rainbows and bright colors too!). So this blanket is off to a good home and that makes me happy. :)

Although I was burnt out on sewing I had a few commitments I HAD to stick to (and I am glad I did!).
 
I FINALLY finished the Dec. Block for the Stash Bee Hive #2 Queen. So sorry it is late!

    Love the TARDIS! The rainbow blanket is very cool. I think that would be a lot of fun to make - I love to knit myself. Have a great day!

    The TARDIS is the best!!! My son and I are both huge Dr. Who fans and watch together (he DVRs them until I visit). This may have to be added to my list. Cool!

    Very nice looking Tardis. I was a Dr Who fan years ago. I haven't seen any of the new ones.
