Yes, it has been a week, already….

I’m still at work on the Double Wedding Ring quilt.  As I suspected the last row is going to be a bear.  I left it for tomorrow.  I shall then say a prayer and “quilt it out.”

Is there a prayer or a Patron Saint out there for Longarm Quilters?  There should be.  Maybe I should email the Pope….

Here is a picture of the CAD screen.  The red is what has been quilted, so far.


Weekly Challenge #27: "Duo-tangle"

I decided to join in on a challenge that goes on at the blog “I Am The Diva-CZT.”   This week's challenge is to do a tile or Zentangle inspired piece that uses only these two tangles; Dex and Verdigogh.

Since I’m new to Zentangle, I’ve not done either Dex or Verdigogh, let alone a “piece.”  I’m giving it a try though.

Challenge#27-1

This is my first try.

Challenge#27-2

This is my second piece.  Something about it is not quite right.  I’m going to work on it a bit more in the future, but for now I’m moving on.

verdigogh

I’m satisfied with my Dex, but Verdigogh…..ugh!

  3. Hi Nicky,
    Zentangles new to me too and this week the challenge was really difficult but I think you've got it down! Love your quilts too, so much work, and such lovely designs and colour. - And as a great grandma I have to say your granddaughter is a little gem. - Enjoy!

  4. You've done a great job! I like them all. My verdigogh is a work in progress. I think yours is very nice.

  5. Keep up the good work on the tangles - you'll find many long arm quilters are using the tangle patterns as quilting guides! *G*
