Weekly Challenge #202: "DuoTangle: Chebucto vs Copada"

This week our task is to create a DuoTangle,  using only the two tangles given.  The two tangles are Chebucto and Copada, which are kind of border tangles. These are not official Zentangle tangles but designed by Margaret Bremner, CTZ.  It was difficult to get a start. I didn't want  to use the tangles in criss-cross lines so I decided to make a circle instead.

Weekly Challenge #201: "Moebius Syndrome Awareness Day 2015"


Saturday January 24th is Moebius Syndrome Awareness Day. Moebius Syndrome is a rare neurological disorder that is present at birth. It primarily affects the 6th and 7th cranial nerves, leaving those with the condition unable to move their faces (they can't smile, frown, suck, grimace or blink their eyes) and unable to move their eyes laterally. More info can be found here.

Laura's son Artoo has this syndrome and the challenge for this week is to raise awareness for this disorder and use the Moebius Syndrome Foundation's logo as your string or use it in another creative thing.

This is my submission for this week:
 Tangles used: Zedbra, Knase, Shard, Chebucto, Prestwood, Rain and Paradox.

The color for MSAD is purple, so if you want to support Artoo and all the others with this disorder, consider to wear purple Saturday....

Weekly Challenge #200: "Bi-Zen-Tennial Celebration!"

There is a celebration going on on  "Ï am the Diva" this week !!! Laura has posted 200 challenges for us over the years, starting on December 20, 2010. Thank you so much Laura for the inspiration. Although I don't participate every week, I wanted to submit to this special Bi-Zen-Tennial Celebration. 
This week's Challenge is to use your favorite  tangle in a Monotangle and take advantage of the whole tile, so no borders. Also put the number 200 somewhere on the tile...
 I thought  Arukas would be a good tangle for this challenge. I love this tangle. 



My grandson Owen was visiting and he wanted to participate also. He had so much fun doing this so this is his contribution to the # 200 challenge. but ...he didn't want to add 200.....
