| String 046 with Pippin, Purk, and Printemps |
I totally had a plan in mind when I started this tile; almost none of my original plan ended up in the piece. I started with Pippin in each of the two loops. Then it all took off on its own. A few more Pippin. A single, straight line of Purk. And many small Printemps. I love the way it turned out. I think it has kind of a Moroccan feel to it (which I could never do on purpose, only accidentally).
On a side note, I just couldn't make myself use Prestwood (another pattern suggested for this challenge). I had a hysterectomy last week and every time I look at Prestwood I see a bunch of uteruses squished up next to each other. I'm pretty sure that pattern is ruined for me forever, which is sad because it's a nice pattern. I guess timing really is everything.
