Zendala Dare #76

This is the template for this week's Zendala Dare, #76, from Erin Koetz Olson, AKA the Bright Owl.

This template didn't appeal to me at first; don't know why, it just didn't. But once I settled on the idea of alternating the diamond shapes in front and in back of the octagonal border section, the rest of it started falling into place;

and this is what I came up with:
The Tangles (or Tangleations) used are: Unyun, by Carol Ohl; YewDee by Peg Farmer; 
and Triral, by Pam Pincha-Wagener.

Be sure to visit the Bright Owl's site; see the other wonderful submissions, and maybe try out one of the Dares yourself.

Thanks for visiting, and leave a comment, favorable or not. That's how we learn and grow; and how we know someone out there is paying attention.

Have a wonderful day, week, month; see you all next time.

  2. Nice touch to alternate the diamonds. Like the boldness of the tangles.

  3. Lovely zendala. I like the tangle you used in the diamonds (I can't remember the name).

    I also alternated the diamonds in mine. I agree that it adds more interest.

    1. I see you listed the tangles. Unyun is the one I was talking about. I thought it was something like "onion", but couldn't remember what.

    2. I was so taken with your straight line rendition that I didn't even notice that you alternated the diamonds until you pointed it out. Fabulous job!
