My tile for Diva Challenge #284 featuring Tripoli as a monotangle.

The Diva’s challenge for this week is to create a tile featuring the official Zentangle pattern Tripoli. Tripoli is a very versatile pattern and makes a good filler. It can also stand on it’s own. The step outs can be found here.

Apparently my default tends to be to go for simplicity, so that’s what I did. So without further ado here is my Tripoli monotangle.

 

 

Diva Challenge #283 – Centre Square

Diva Challenge #283 Entry
Diva Challenge #283: UMT: Centre Square by Aleesha Sattva CZT

What a busy summer! After not posting for several weeks I am back fresh with another challenge tangle. This week’s Diva challenge is of the Use My Tangle (UMT) variety – this time we are invited to create a tile using Centre Square by Aleesha Sattva CZT. A step out can be found here.

Centre Square is another grid type of pattern. I thought it would be fun to place the grid inside of a rounded off, concave square and added some Flux in the corners. I enjoyed drawing this pattern, however I have to confess that I got “writer’s cramp” after a while! Thanks to the Diva for another enjoyable challenge.
