Decisions, Decisions

Have you ever had a week like this?
It seems like everything I worked on this past week ended up with multiple versions. I just couldn't make up my mind which to go with. I narrowed them down to two for each challenge.

First is the Diva's Challenge #202, a DuoTangle:   
Chebucto versus Copada.
 
They are similar, yet different; different enough that they even look better seen from different directions. 
I just couldn't decide.

Be sure to visit the Diva's site to see the other wonderful entries; it's amazing how different all the responses are. Maybe you'll be inspired to try out one of the Challenges yourself. ``````````````````````````````````````````````
The next one is That String Thing #77.
String 077 by Barbara Finwall
and any or all of the following patterns:
Heartrope by Bunny Wright
Heartstrings by Helen Williams
Heartvine by Lori Howe
Luv-a by CZT Sharon Coforio

I used all 4 of the patterns in one form or other. 
I actually had 4 versions, but broke it down to just 2: 
1 black and white and 1 in color. I like them both.

Be sure to check out all the entries @ Tickled to Tangle, on Monday afternoon, 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 afternoon, 
when she offers the new ones.
 `````````````````````````````````````````````````````
I was also working on SquareOne and joey's challenge, but wanted to get at least these 2 posted. 
I'll see if I can finish the others and post them soon.

  3. So interesting to go back and forth between the two tiles observing the differences. Both are well done and I don't think there is a favorite, just different. I like the pretty and flowing stringed design too.

  6. The first one is my favorite, Audrie, because There is so much depth in it. Your String Thing tile is great and so very different from mine, always fun to see.
