I hope everyone is having or has had a Merry Christmas, or Chanukah, or Kwanza, or whatever holiday you celebrate. And that next week brings you a wonderful New Year; in which the worst day is no worse than the best day of this past year.

I'm trying to play catchup with my challenges. I've done some of them over the past weeks/months, but haven't posted many. I hope to remedy that in the New Year.

For now, here are some from this week that I'm actually posting before the weekend:

The challenge at Made by Joey was to use the tangle Chillon on 
Twinchies (5cm x 5cm), the same as Bijou tiles 2"x 2")
I had so much fun with it that I did 5 of them.

Take a look at joey’s site to see the other entries, 
and maybe try one yourself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For It's a String Thing #72, we were asked to use String #72 by CZT Rita Nikolajeva; 
and Adele Bruno's tangle Uncorked 
along with the official tangle Mooka. 
This is what I came up with; as you can see, I've inverted the string:

Be sure to check out all the entries @ Tickled to Tangle, on Monday, when Adele Bruno posts them. The vast differences that can be achieved using the same tangles on the same string are truly incredible. And, if you've a mind to try a String Thing yourself, check back on Tuesday, when she offers the new ones.

Best Wishes for a Joyous Holiday Season and a Happy New Year.

  3. Your Tickled to Tangle tile is so elegantly done. It reminds me of a blooming crocus (think spring!). Happy new year!
