Create Mixed-Media announced the winners today of the Zen Doodle: Oodles of Doodles challenge. I am
Zen Doodles Oodles of Doodles challenge |
I posted last week when I received the email about being one of the winners and which Zentangles were accepted. (See post from Fri, April 18.here.) I've been busy drawing my step-outs for each Zentangle that was accepted. However, I can't show these just yet. You'll just have to wait for the book to be published to see my sketches for Week 16! F&W Media is planning a Dec 2014 publish date. Thank you for your understanding and support! (especially my husband - he's been having to cook this week! Lol!)
The editor also asked me to send a few more photos of my Zentangles. I like Traci Bautista's glamour girls and had to try a couple. This is one I sent. The others have been posted already.

I also quilted some this week. I've been working on a charm square challenge issued by the President's of the Prickly Piecer's quilt guild chapter I belong to. I found a modern quilt pattern that I really like called Shine Through by Zen Chic's Brigitte Heitland. I chose Kaffe Fassett fabrics for the charm pack and a solid red background with a solid purple backing fabric. I plan to also use the purple fabric to add a piping to the binding. I'm ready to start quilting, but not sure how I want to quilt it yet.

The girl is lovely, and the quilt just amazing! That is something I can't even think of trying to do, such small pieces of fabric and complicated design...Well, maybe one day. lol! I love the colors you chose, so vibrant and happy looking.
ReplyDeleteThank you! The girl was a challenge, so I'm happy with the way she turned out. I don't usually do modern quilts, but fell in love with this pattern. Was much harder to do than I expected! Getting the grid correct took me 3 whole days - something I thought would take a couple hours! Lol!! Still thinking about quilting designs. Any suggestions?
