Weekly Challenge #174: Superimposing String

This week's challenge is brought to us from Aimee Belair, CZT


Her challenge is to superimpose strings - place a string on top of another string .  I fiddled around with a couple of strings at lunchtime and wish I had taken a pic as now I can't even tell where the strings are.
 
It's 1 July, but seeing as we are a day in front, I think I need to post for day 30 - create each day in June!! yay!!! it's quite a feat - the being creative is not hard but the posting is so time consuming.  Check it out here Whimsy and Zen with Kelly Barone.

Thanks for looking :)

  2. Both are great, and I do like the one without shading as much as the one with shading, they have both their own personality.

  3. I always like seeing the difference shading makes in a tile. It gives it such a different look, softer than the first.

  4. I like that my eye keeps moving. I saw the dangling hearts first and then the teepee shape in the middle. Then the shelves, ooh, and there's a flower!
    I envy that you manage this so well without it becoming over tangled.

  6. As always, a pleasure to view. I know exactly what Sal means - there is so much to discover (and learn) in just about every thing you do.

  9. You are so comfortable with your Pattern work, Lila. Your lines are so positive and assured, and you blend different patterns together seamlessly. Both versions stand alone and are beautiful. I love them both.

  11. Very nice.
    It's interesting for me to see that the version "without shading" gives a stringer impact (I'm not sure stronger is the right word here, but it will do for now). The shading takes it to a completely different place...

  12. Your shading really points out how a piece can be more dramatic with shading.
