The Diva's Weekly Challenge has been posted..... and we have been invited to create a monotangle using the mysteriously charming "Paradox". According to dictionary.com, one definition of a paradox is: a person or thing exhibiting apparently contradictory characteristics. In this case, straight lines = a curvaceous design. (For a wonderful "in-depth" tutorial of Paradox, click here)
Before the challenge was announced, I had already decided that my string (for this week's challenge) would be symbolic of a star. We have 50 of them proudly displayed on Old Glory. This week, I'm feeling a bit more patriotic than usual - as the 10th anniversary of America's 9/11 tragedy is commemorated.
