Diva Challenge 226 and Square One: Finery
This week’s challenge from the Diva’s guest blogger is one of Simplicity. Creating a tile without filling the entire thing, leaving a bit of space to breathe. I played around with Rashell by Lin Chiu for this one and actually had fun leaving it so open.
With the Square One Facebook group, the focus this week was Finery. I did a tile as well as a zendala, and for some reason perfs were calling to me as well.
I hope you enjoy and would love to hear what you think.

Your tiles are gorgeous! I love the fluidity and lusciousness of Rashell. Simply beautiful. Your finery rocks! 🙂

Thanks! Rashell was a fun one to do. I can see more of that in my future…

This came out so nicely! I’ve been wanting to try Rashell but I was overfocused on the complexity to get there for this challenge! Your Zendala and “finery” tile came out great too.

Beautiful delicate Finery, and I LOVE your simplicity tile – it flows so beautifully! Rashell is a tangle I don’t know – I’ll have to look it up because it looks so wonderful here!

Thanks so much. Rashell is out on TanglePatterns.com now – I first saw it in Linda’s email from the site and had to give it a try.
