Diva challenge #355

I’m very sad: yesterday we had to say goodbye to our dearest cat friend Izzy :-( All of a sudden he became very ill and it’s hard to realise he’s not with us anymore. May he rest in peace 🙏🏻

Tangling gives me some comfort, so I liked Laura’s challenge to create something with the pattern Verve. I kept it simple and added Wud and Hurry 🙏🏻

It's a String Thing #208

We're celebrating the 4th birthday of the ''It's a String Thing' challenge! Congratulations Adele, and thank you for all those great challenges!

Square One: Sindoo

A nice focus tangle for Facebook's group Square One: Sindoo (in the middle of this tile). A lovely pattern which I will use more often!

Diva & Joey Halloween challenge

Since I'm not a big Halloween-fan (we don't really celebrate this in The Netherlands), I decided to (for once) combine the challenges of Laura and Joey. They both have a Halloween challenge, so here's my entry :-). The patterns I've used are Wud, X-did, Borbz and Croon.

Thank you for visiting my blog, your comments always put a happy smile on my face!

Zenuari day 8: Roll the dice

We're to roll the dice six times and each number is linked to the name of a tangle in a special list Anoeska made. This means I want to use a string pattern that consists of at least six parts - and then I start to puzzle with the 'chosen' patterns.

I chose string #110 and had to fill it with Wud, Arukas, Quib, Jetties, Jalousie and Hurry. Patterns I would not have chosen myself to use together in 1 tile. Especially Quib doesn't really fit in, but hey: that's life :-)

Diva's Challenge #236

This week, Laura challenges us to tangle on something unexpected, something you wouldn't normally tangle on. She used an old map, and had the highways as a string. Nice, I would have liked to use an old map as well, but I didn't want to copy Laura's idea ;-)

So, being Dutch and being used to see cows (black and white!) In the meadows, I chose to tangle on a postcard with a cow on it, after I had cut it in the right size:

When I started tangling, I noticed the card was quite smooth, it had a very tiny plastified layer. This made tangling on it pretty hard, because the ink disappeared sometimes and I couldn't really get grip on the paper. 

But hey: that's what a challenge is all about: challenges! :-)

Diva Challenge #231

Guest blogger Sharla Hicks likes us to use an old favorite undulating C or S curve tangle. I couldn't think of one straight away, so yesterday I decided to explore Isochor.

Once finished, I wasn't sure if this was the result I had in mind for this challenge. So today, I created something completely different:

Now I can't choose which one I like best. I think my mind is undulating between these two ;-)

It's always nice to take a look at the Diva's blog to see what other people created!

V-W-X challenge

In Diane and Carolien's Challenge, we've arrived at the letters V-W-X. I liked to try out something new, so I chose Vercut and Wud. To these, I added tangle pattern 'X'. 

Curious what next week's challenge will be like, since we've almost arrived at the end of the alphabet ;-)
