I've missed quite a few of the DivaCZT's challenges recently. Some I would really like to have done, so maybe I'll go back to them later, especially the new tangle Well.
This week's challenge is to use only Tipple and Knightsbridge. These are both favorites of mine and I teach them in my first class. I had a tile with a string already drawn using a
board game leftover as a stencil. It had been hanging around for quite some time, never really appealed to me, but it seemed to invite Knightsbridge so away I went.
For more ideas about using Knightsbridge see
this post. And for several variations of Tipple go
here.
Just for interest's sake I thought you might like to see the string I started with, and the tile without shading.
Margaret, your shading is always so rich.
ReplyDeleteMargaret, your ideas always make me smile and sigh with a wow that's so clever!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking tile Margaret.
ReplyDeleteVery lovely tile!
ReplyDeleteI always love seeing what you have come up with - this looks terrific. I love how it appears as if there are torn pieces revealing the patterns below.
ReplyDeleteThanks Margaret - inspiring as always. Love your work.

ReplyDeleteWow, has an Escher feel. Your string is great, I so appreciate your process and work! So rich and full of variation and texture.
ReplyDeleteI love what you did with Knightsbridge and Tipple, looks very quilted (is that a word?)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous tile! This is really really outstanding! Thank you for showing your truly inspiring (and daunting) string which is ever so cool, and the tile before shading. You are really an inspiration! WOW
