Round the Bend squares 3 and 4

The next 2 squares for Round the Bend 2 are complete.

This is the top row left hand corner, using the motif 'Encore'. It is important to audition the motifs for the amount of curves in each square. Here the curves are very tight, so need a smallish, flexible motif. Encore is quite simple - which often gives the most flexibility. It is also very quick and easy.

This is the next row down, still on the left hand side. You haven't seen this motif before and I have yet to come up for a name, but it is sort of based on an alternating round and square snail shell. No, we don't have square snails in south Devon UK (although I have thousands of the round variety)- I do have imagination!!

Here are the 2 squares aligned together. 

Happy Thanksgiving to all US visitors!

Thanks for visiting...
