Days 48 and 49

     Day 48 - Suzy Mosh's New to Me Challenge gave me an opportunity to work with Helen Williams's tangle "steps".  I love the look but hadn't been able to feel comfortable with it until now.  I also add some other new "s" tangles - stonework, square in a square, and slender.  This was a fun challenge.  Sometimes the biggest challenge is finding new tangles.  So far I have been able to keep all the tangles on a piece new and starting with the selected letter.  Not bad, huh?
Day 49 - Finally got back to the Journal52 page.  The prompt was Valentines.  I got several cute cards from my kiddos at school, - boxes of yummy sugar free chocolate too.  I thought I wanted to do more of a Valentine from a more serious "love" perspective.   So I went to my favorite chapter of the Bible, Corinthians, and used it as my inspiration.  After all, that to me is the greatest Valentine ever given.
  I hope you are having a wonderful day!  Take care and thank you for dropping by!

  1. Wonderful drawing! Yes, it is hard to find some patterns-like the letter U.

  2. I like this steps pattern. Never have seen it before, but it looks like a fun and versatile tangle. As a whole the tile reminds me of something an office worker would have on her desk: a bunch of papers, and something to fiddle with while making calls. Good work.
