I can't understand how every week's Diva Challenge just seems to fit with my life. When she told us to make a tangle with only straight lines, I was at a loss. When I first started, I did straight lines, but lately, there aren't many straight lines in my tangles. Actually, there aren't many straight lines in my life. My current shopping list reads: Zantac, crickets, Nazi Uniforms. Ain't nothing straight about that!After thinking about the challenge for a while, I decided to "go with what you know" and "divide and conquer." So, I split the tile in half and did a nice square quilt pattern on it. After that, it was much easier. For me, just getting started is way more than half the battle. Being a procrastinator goes hand in hand with being a perfectionist. <sigh>
I'm also trying to get some big projects done at home, which I had been putting off for the same reasons. So now I'm off to divide and conquer those. Happy tangling!
Divide and conquer - excellent plan! I quite relate to the perfectionist/procrastinator challenge. I like the quilty look of your tile.
