Pinwheels for Peace

Back in September 2011, Amy Broady suggested this challenge, to celebrate the International Day of Peace on September 21st

This is the second Pinwheel for Peace challenge that I've done, as earlier this year I drew the pinwheel you can find here.

This time I decided to make an actual pinwheel. I used just two tangles; Bloom on the front of the square and Coaster on the back. When I put the pinwheel together I used a little bit of IX right in the centre.




Happy tangling...

Love is all you Need

Laura set this challenge in September 2011 to mark the Ten Year anniversary of the tragedy of 9/11 in New York City.
As Laura wrote "Through love we have the ability to change the world."
I love grid-based patterns so that's what I chose to use.
I used the word 'Love' as my string.
I loved this challenge and the end result, even though my attempt at Bucky went wrong! I joined the wrong pair of dots... So I'm calling it the 'Bucky Oops' variation :D
The tangles I used were Chard, Bloom, Nzeppel, Ninja Stars, Beelight, Postl, Up & Across, and finally, Bucky Oops!
Happy tangling...
