It's a string thing #77: We had to use the tangles Heartvine, Heartstrings, Luv-A and Heartrope together with string 077.

That was a lovely challenge! Thank you, Adele.

The Diva's Weekly Challenge #202: 

The Diva challenged us this week with a Duo-Tangle. We had to use the tangles Copada and Chebucto by Mararet Bremner. I didn't coped well with the tangle Chebucto. There was more than one try I needed to get it drawn properly. It looks easy but it isn't. I wasn't quite happy with the tile before I shaded it. But with a good shading you can do a lot of good to a tile. So have a look and give me your opinion.

This tile is inspired by the recent zentangle newsletter about the tangle Enyshou. I'm not sure if I have drawn it properly because there are no official step-outs of it. 

It's a string thing #76:
That's what I wrote to Adele:
Dear Adele

It’s been a while since I participated in one of your challenges. It`s always quite a challenge to get strings and the asked patterns into something harmonic.

Sometimes it’s easier and sometimes not. This time it was somehow very difficult to get this erratic string together with the delicate patterns. But I’m quite happy what I produced.

So thank you very much for your challenging tasks.

Have a good time

The Diva's Weekly Challenge #201

This Challenge is dedicated to Lauras little son Artoo and the Moebius Syndrome Awareness Day on January 24th.

Moebius Syndrome is very rare, only 1-2 children of one million have it. For more information go to the Diva's site http://iamthedivaczt.blogspot.ch/ or to http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%B6bius-Syndrom.

It was an honour to tangle for this day and for Artoo. He's so cute and so brave. He just had an eye surgery and I know  a bit about that, because I had two as a very young child and one as a seventeen old teenager. Now I'm again cross eyed with my left eye since 10 years and I know how people can stare sometimes. But it's nothing compared to what Artoo has to deal with.

This Zendala is a recent tile I finished. The template is one of Erin's (http://thebrightowl.blogspot.ch/). 

Have a nice day and keep up tangling. Thank your for your visit.

I wish you all a happy new year! May all your wishes come true!
