Challenge 173

The Diva's 
Weekly Challenge #173: Redux, Remix, Revisit Your Comfort Tangle

We have a guest Sharla Hicks CZT post our challenge this week.

See her beautiful informative blog here

We are to Redux, Remix, Revisit a familiar favorite tangle, one we may call a comfort or go-to tangle with a different look. I selected Tripoli but I stretched it out on a black zendala tile. I usually overdo the black tiles but I enjoyed the simplicity of one tangle and decided it was finished so revisited brayd on another black zendala tile.

 

Thanks Sharla for encouraging me to revisit the black tiles.

  10. oh my… these are stunning! Tripoli is a tangle I've always feared and had trouble with and you make it looks so elegant and (maybe) easy.

  13. Outstanding, I love them both. But I'm hooked on the first one with Tripoli. Before I even opend your post I guessed that you should have done one with Tripoli. This one looks so delicate. It is almost as a real jelly fish.

  15. I would say you have nothing to worry about when it comes to the black tiles. These are beautiful. I like the simplicity of them. The Tripoli reminds me of looking through a microscope. I like the cross hatch on the Brayd. You should do things on black tiles more often.

  19. Beautiful black tiles! I especially like the Tripoli. You certainly did not over do. It's simplistically gorgeous! Between your tiles and Sharla Hicks black tiles, I had to have a go too! I need more practice, but I see the potential now!
