Challenge 115: "Amanda Day" - Earth Day

This week's challenge is in honor of Earth Day and it immediately made me think of the elements that make up our wonderful Earth: Water, Fire, Air and Earth.  So I set out on my quest to find a tangle that represented each and here is what I came up with:

Tangles: Lamar (Water), Flying Geese (Air), Candle Glow (Fire), Sand Swirls (Earth)

Keep Tangling!!

New Tangle: Baraboo

Here is my newest tangle that I have recently shared in my newsletter (link to sign up is on the right side).  I never thought I would come up with a grid pattern...I figured they were so abundant that there weren't any possible new ones.  It goes to show that the world is an amazing place and new possibilities are always around the corner or in the next carpet pattern you happen to see. :-)

Keep Tangling!

New Tangle - Tuscadero

My newest tangle is called Tuscadero.  The name comes from my friend Carol who said she thought it would make a great name for a tangle, and she was RIGHT!  I found this tangle while perusing an art deco design book I have.  It immediately called to my inner child.  I love the playfulness of this tangle and the Dr. Suess quality of it.  I hope you have as much fun with it as I have.

New Tangle - Ojo

I just recently went through some old tangling stuff and found sketches of patterns I found in some library books several years ago - way before my blog and the thought of putting my own patterns out there.  Here is the first which I call - OJO.  As I was coming up with the steps I first thought it looked like a bug and then I noticed that it looked like an eye with really long pretty eye lashes.  My long ago experience with Spanish immediately brought up the word for eye in Spanish and voila (that's all the french i know) we have OJO.
