CWeedZ pattern

When I was on vacation, it seemed that everywhere I looked, I saw potential tangle patterns.  My husband thinks it's an unhealthy obsession, but I prefer to think of it as a new way of looking at things.  I met a nice lady on the plane who, after watching me tangle for a while, told me that it is just paying more attention to detail and living more "in the moment."  I like her analysis better.

Here's the next in my California-inspired tangles.  I call it CWeedZ.  Here's the inspiration picture.

And here is my tangle pattern.
 

Finally, here it is used in a tile. I used Linda Farmer's Shiraz pattern. I thought it would be  a perfect accompaniment since it looks like shells.  My DD said it wasn't "tangly" enough, so I put on a border using the Japanese water tangles from Sandy Bartholomew's Totally Tangled.  In particular, I used Swell, Quiff, Zazzle, and Falls.

  2. Great idea Phine. In fact, I am working on a journal of our trip to California. I never thought of including a tangle. Thanks.
