Challenge 195

The Diva's

Weekly Challenge #195: "Turning Old into New" 
The clever idea for our challenge this week comes from Sandy Hunter at tanglebucket.blogspot.com
Select favourite freeform tangles and turn them into grid tangles.

If you find tripoli tricky try this, I was surprised how well it turned out. Draw two lines for the grid and one line through the middle of each square .......fill the triangles.  I am going to do this more often.
Thanks Sandy, that's a splendid idea.

    I was almost sure you would use tripoli: it's one that you so often feature. Your tile is so lovely as always and the grid-tripoli is a great idea. I love tripoli too but can't keep it "in line" so this grid variation is going to be fine for me! Thank you!

    Of course you did Tripoli! And how beautiful it looks in a grid! I think it will help a lot of people to draw tripoli. Great Idea!

    Like the tripoli. Do not think of this in a grid.

    A beautiful Tile. Love your approach to Tripoli. I had to stop and try it right now. Thanks for the grid idea. There is hope for Tripoli in my future. Beautiful work, Shelly.

    Beautifully done as per usual! Mooka almost looks like a butterfly design and tripoli has evolved too...very clever.

    Great way to use Tripoli, and it does make it easier to keep it even and contained.
