Afghan Block of the Month: January

Because I don't have enough projects on my Dreaded To Do List Already (yes, I am being sarcastic . . . LOL) I decided to challenge myself to do the Afghan Block of the Month at http://www.crochetmagazine.com/crochet_block.php?id=11.  Here is the January block which I think is rather adorable.


It was quite simple to do and I think it is very pretty.  No idea what I'm going to do with the blocks when I'm done . . . perhaps make a throw or afghan or something crafty.  But you know I can't resist trying a new pattern.
