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.
Rashell
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.
