Members WinterBear Posted March 13, 2012 Members Report Posted March 13, 2012 YOU HAVE DONE YOUR CHALLENGE AND CONQUERED!!!!!!!! Challenge was Create a Celtic Knot using only 3 tools...... Now whatever you decide to do with the rest is up to you....you should stamp the back as well and lace it up...that is going to make a very nice pouch!! GREAT JOB!!!!!! Post up some pics when it is all done! THANKS SO MUCH FOR PARTICIPATING AND I HOPE YOU HAD FUN! Well, that was the whole point, right? 3 tools. I'll have to decide on the back. If I can work out the bugs and get this pattern down, I might do the back with a "dragon scale" pattern, or maybe just use the swivel, a beveler and seeder and make a "quilted" pattern on the back. I like lacing, but I think this one might have to be saddle-sewn chancey. I don't think I have enough room around the knot to do a lacing without getting too close to either the edge or the knot. And yes, once I got over being annoyed with my shortcomings, I had fun. That's a great job Winter. Can't wait to see what you do with it. Thanks. If I can manage what I'd like to do with it, the rest of the structure is going to be based loosely off of boma's purse for the front (under the flap) and part of the side gusset, and it will have a molded pocket inside on the back flap for my phone. I haven't been following this thread because I don't know how to do a Celtic knot and don't feel like I have time to learn right now. I hear you say every thing that's wrong, but I think it's beautiful WinterBear, and probably just another day in your multi and I DO mean multi-talented life. c Hey, I had no idea either, but I muddled through. Look at "triquetra" on Google for some elegant knots that don't make you dizzy trying to figure out which strand goes where. You're going to give me a big head, you know. I used to be an Eagle, a good ol' Eagle too...
Members PL01 Posted March 13, 2012 Members Report Posted March 13, 2012 Is it just me, or does it seem like people are having a lot more fun with the challenges when we dye them? It certainly appears that way. But it's all good fun My Gallery
