Minnie - New Tangle!

So I was heavily inspired by the Diva Challenge this week - Mickey. We were asked to represent Mickey Mouse and Walt Disney in our tile. I watched Steamboat Willie and scoured the internet for pictures of Mickey and his pals, and one thing jumped out at me - Minnie's bow!
If you want to find out more and see Minnie in action, then hop on over to my post "Hey Mickey, You're So Fine..."

And with no further ado, here she is... Minnie:

and a bit of Socc thrown in for luck!

I'm definitely one for grid-based patterns, but gave a little bit of free form Minnie a try too.

Hope you enjoy it.
Happy tangling...

Hey Mickey, You're So Fine...

It feels like there's been no time between the last challenge and this one... but that's because I was very late getting going on Socc! But I'm on holiday this week!! And this week's challenge was SOOOOOOOOOO much fun!!!

Welcome to the Mickey Challenge, set by guest challenger, Courtney Frantz.

In this challenge Courtney challenges us to do a Mickey Mouse inspired tile, as November 18th is Mickey's birthday - the day Steamboat Willie was released.

So I started with overlapping Ms to form my string:

And then I watched Steamboat Willie which is posted on the challenge and was inspired! I even came up with a new tangle (at least I think it's new... please tell me if you know otherwise) based on the big bow Minnie often wears.

Mickey Vermal; Pluto bones IX; Mickey tangle;
Minnie's Polka dots, Flowers and Bows
Steamboat Willie's bell and puffs of smoke

Colourful Mickey!

As I said.... SOOOOOOOO much fun.

Happy tangling...
