I really like blind strings. They give such oddball shapes to work in. I had a sheaf of new tangles that I wanted to try and this seemed a good opportunity to do that. I started with
Drobbles by Cindy Angiel. Once that was on the paper it seemed to call for more small circle patterns so I abandoned my plan and went with circles.

Tangles: Beadlines, Croon, Cruffle, Drobbles, Keenees,

Back to the new tangles I wanted to try. My second blind string tile includes Stephanie Skelton's
Deelish , Carla du Preez's
Pop-cloud and Maria Copetas'
Shingle.

beautiful work - lots of cool new tangles, too!
ReplyDeleteBoth are lovely but I am fascinated with your circles. Very cool!
ReplyDeleteThey both are great. I like the first one better, but I am always drawn to the circle patterns. I enjoyed this challenge. I like to create random strings. It seems to be quite a challenge for my students. They are hesitant about strings. I just scribble something on the tile and go with it. :)
ReplyDeleteMe too. I have no trouble with strings, so I don't quite know how to advise people who do!
DeleteNever once , when I have seen your tiles, am I not just wowed by your stylish rich tangling technique! These both are gorgeous beyond words!
ReplyDeleteOoo thank you!
DeleteLove these! You've inspired me to try some new tangles! Drobbles and cruffle are perfect together.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful, Margaret! (this is the first time I've seen my tangle in someone else's work! Totally stunned me!)
ReplyDelete:D
DeleteIt's a lovely one!
both really lovely. love the continuation of the deelish.
ReplyDeleteThese are super examples, the top one seems like the night sky with lots of stars. I do like the bottom one if I had to choose though.
