Weekly Challenge #260

Greetings Tanglers!

Last week of the quarter and all the late work is being turned in, so this is a quick one.  Here is my piece for the diva’s challenge of using Shattuck in a monotangle.

I used Aquafleur as a string for this one.

Weekly Challenge #259

Happy St. Patrick’s Day fellow Tanglers!

Just another quick post. I'm counting down to the end of the quarter and things are crazy at school, and of course I have massive grading to do, so not a lot of time to tangle or even look at much. This too shall pass and in one more week I will have a bit of time to tangle and relax. Here are two quick, Touch of Irish tiles for this weeks diva challenge.

Tangles used, Lucky and Tipple. 

 Tangles used, Lucky and Fescu.

Weekly Challenge #258

Greetings fellow Tanglers!

I had time this early part of the week to quick get done two challenges. I have a very loaded rest of the week, so I really needed to get them done and up. Over at i am the diva, it was a use my tangle week and we were to use Rautyflex, by Kathrin Bendel a CZT from Germany. I have to agree that this one is a very high focus tangle, and no matter what I did to follow the step outs, I couldn’t get this one to work the way it was shown. I did however get it to work pretty well by starting with just a basic grid and going from there. I was able to see where things went using a straight grid, the other just didn’t work with my mind. I also moved it into some Tripoli, and I can see it morphing into quandary quite well too, and when I have a bit more time plan to play with that one. So here is my diva challenge, Rautyflex and Tripoli.

Over at Joey’s weekly tangle challenge she challenged us with a string and these three tangles, Buttercup, Fescu and tipple. I had not used Buttercup before so it was another new to me tangle, and one that I know that I will use again. I really am looking forward to spring so used a watercolor wash of green first, and then tangled over it.

  

That’s all for this week, and as I apologize ahead of time that I won’t be able to leave comments for you this week.

Weekly Challenge #257

Greetings Fellow Tanglers!

It’s been a busy couple of weeks in my life with conferences at school.  I managed this week to at least attempt the challenge of Oh Shiny, by guest artist Amy Broady, over at the i am the diva challenge.  Of course I was in school and didn’t have access to my stash, so I worked with what I had that day, a copper metallic, and silver shadow Gelly roll pen. I also tried out a couple of new to me tangles, Y-Chain, by Damy, and Sati, by Jem Miller, and put them on String 198 from tanglepatterns.com. The photo really doesn’t show the shine very well, but here is my Oh Shiny.
