I’m tangling from A to Z – D is for…
…Dex
…Diamond Drops
…Dooleedo
(Pssst… new here? Welcome to Alphabet Salad! For some background on how and why I got involved in the Blogging from A to Z Challenge, check out this post… and, if you’d like to catch up on my progress to date, all of my challenge posts are tagged with Tangling from A to Z. Glad you stopped by, and hope you’ll return!)
Tangle Practice
I found that today’s tangles were easier than they looked, and everything came together faster than I’d expected. Happy Friday!
Tangle Practice – Dex
Tangle Practice – Diamond Drops
Tangle Practice – Dooleedo
Border & String
Just to carry on with the whole A to Z theme, I thought I’d make each day’s “string” resemble the appropriate letter for the day. I can’t always promise that the finished tiles will look anything like the letters – it all depends on which tangles I’m using and how the drawing evolves. We’ll just have to see what happens!

I LOVE these. Have ordered my first book, thanks to discovering you! Have also recommended your blog to a couple other budding artists who will be as “bemused” as I am. I thought your individual tangles were pretty but WOW that finished tile is beautiful.
