International Day of Peace

Finally caught up on the week's challenges here! This week's Diva Challenge was in honor of Pinwheels for Peace, celebrating the International Day of Peace (Sept 21st)  I simply thought of Stars 'n Stripes as our troops are continually protecting our peace and striving to ensure peace around the world, and this became my pinwheel:
 
 
And this is my rendition of the week's Zendala Dare #23 from Erin over at the Bright Owl:


 
I even managed to get one more little Zia done this afternoon--String 18 from Tangle Patterns with a little Kunstler and eyeballs ala my hubby...I so wanted to draw eyelashes but decided not to...I love this tangle!

The Nest


So I'm all caught up just in time for the start of next week's challenges! And I even managed to get some packing done as well today--getting a little closer to Moving Day!! WooHoo!! Thanks for stopping by--have a great weekend!!

    Great job on all 3. Love your pinwheel color and flow, it's beautiful. Zendala is great, love the contrast and tangle choice, your string is great. Makes me smile!

    Love your patriotic pinwheel - perfect inspiration. Also am impressed with your zendala (nice choice of tangles), and love your Kunstler and eyeballs. With halloween stuff showing up in the stores - that seems appropriate.

    All three very nice! Like you, I love Kunstler. I'm so happy for you that you can find time to tangle, between packing.

    Your zendala reminds me of those American sweets I have seen when visiting the US. Can't think what they are called. Very nice zendala.
