Diva’s Weekly Challenge #125, “Birdie Feet”

This month’s “use my tangle”, aka “UMT”, is Birdie Feet by Owl Loving  April.  The pattern step out is here

I enjoyed doing this! I drew a string that made a wandering path through my tile, and filled it with Birdie Feet. I put dots all around the feet to remind me of bird seed.  I surrounded the path with variations of Hollibaugh, Mooka, Locar, Tipple, Zander, and a variation of Scrolled Feather by Helen Williams. The upper right area is a variation of Hurry–filling the area with alternating lines .

    I like your tile. You did the same as I did. Made a string, and the string led you to your drawing. It is so nice how you made a little way with the birdie feet. To me it looks like a sandy path where the bird walked. You used great tangles and the end result is beautiful.

    I would like to walk the path through your beautifully tangled garden!

    A great combination of patterns. The path with the Birdie Feet fits perfectly.

    What a great tile with many great tangles. I also did birdie feet footprints, but I really like your “bird seed” that you added.

    Lovely tile! I love your choices of tangles. Well done!

      Thank you! I used tangles that made me think of birds…nesting, feathers, seeds, eggs, and Mooka because it has a fairy-tale like quality, and birds are naturals for fairy tales and fantasy!

    Stunning. Like the path through your bird habitat.

      Thanks Donald! I saw your tile, and you had the same idea about a string-path that I had, and I noticed several others had the same approach…which is a logical connection: foot prints leave a path.
