I was not inspired by the UMT this month but I know that many others have been - and very much so, with an amazing selection of clever effects produced. Thank you for sharing Anneke Van Dam's tangle, Laura.
I decided to use it as a background for a new tangle. It's simple and uses curved and straight lines only and I've been enjoying using it in some ZIAs, which I share here.
Let me know if you fancy trying it out - I'd love to see what can be done! I have included the step outs at the bottom of the page. I have called it 'Romie' after my daughter, Romy...we pronounce it with a short 'o' as in 'often' but I have heard it pronounced as if it were inspired by Rome...you choose!

| Step outs for Romie as submitted to Linda at Tangle Patterns....have to wait and see whether I've 'recreated' something that already exists! I've done it once before in absolute innocence so we'll have to see!! |
Thanks for stopping by - don't forget to check out the great UMT tangles on I am the Diva's blogspot!
I would agree that MacDee works well as a background. And, I love your tangle pattern too!

ReplyDeleteOo, oo! A new non-grid tangle! It's going straight in my notebook!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sal! It does work in a grid too but I understand it's the non-grid bit that does it for you! Axxx

Love your new tangle; I'm sure I'll use it. And I like the way you used it with MacDee in your tile. Great job.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Audrie. I don't think I did much justice to MacDee but I enjoyed sharing Romie and hope you use it. Axxx
