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.
As I said.... SOOOOOOOO much fun.
Update - 13th October
Here are the instructions for Minnie's Bows: Minnie - New Tangle
Happy tangling...
