Diva Challenge #121 UMT: Birds on a Wire

It always surprises me when another UMT (use my tangle) appears on the DIVA challenge because that means another month has flown by.  I was just talking with a friend yesterday about how the summer is filling up with plans already and that it's sure to go by way too fast, as it always does.  This week we are trying a tangle from CZT, Mary Kissel called Bird on a Wire.  This is a very versatile tangle that can look lovely going both ways in the same line and around in a circle.   Thanks for sharing your tangle, Mary and thanks Laura for this feature of your weekly challenges!  I would miss so many great tangles without it

  1. You're so right! Without the challenge we would miss so many great patterns! :D

    It's great how different "birds on a wire" can look from tangle to tangle.

    I like the combination of your patterns and that you chose a circle for birds on a wire. Great work!
