Personal Pattern Challenge


R0xanne, challenged the 212 artists, to create a piece of art work symbolizing their personal pattern. She gave us a written example explaning that each person has their own pattern, your heart, circulatory system, etc. all have a pattern. Which can change from relaxation to mood change to excitement.

Personal Pattern


I titled my piece "My 24 hour pattern" . I carried a piece of muslin with me one day and doodled with black marker. Over a few days I colored it, made it into this block and embellished it........ leaving a few loose threads as the loose ends I always seem to have at the end of any given day.

Personal Pattern


There were many pieces turned in for the Pattern challenge and there were three winners, Hollee, Amy and I.

Personal Pattern


........ the next challenge is the Micro Earth challenge, due end of May and I have a fun idea for that one.

Making progress.........


Using Mali symbols in the design of my sweater. The images tell a story. Now working on the second sleeve, which has a sad story. There's a jealous husband, a crocodile and a one legged girl. So the story continues as the sweater continues... how will the story end?
