"It's a String Thing" #299

It's Tuesday, your good news day!

Below is the prompt for this week.  Look for the results of IAST #298 in the next few days!

After some deliberation on whether or not to include the 50th anniversary of the moon landing in our IAST #298 prompt, I am glad that I waited until this week. 

Once I watched the news coverage and relived watching it unfold as I did as a young girl, I gained a renewed appreciation for the drive and determination that made this monumental event happen.  I am in utter awe of the accomplishments of so many that made it possible.

Our string this week pays homage to the first earth rise photograph captured by William Anders on December 24, 1968, from Apollo 8.

IAST #299 String by Adele Bruno, CZT
The tangles we will use include ~

Zangler by Jody Genovese, CZT
Who doesn't love a tangle by Jody?  This brand new one not only has a sweet story behind it, it is just beautiful as it unfolds.

Croon by Margaret Bremner, CZT
Since Margaret's inspiration for this tangle was Crescent Moon, it is fitting for our prompt.

Twirlies by Nancy Newlin, CZT
These free floating shapes fit nicely with our theme.
 

Simply pencil in the string line and begin.
Keep in mind that the string is a suggestion and let the tangles lead the way.  There is no need to be representational with regard to the string's inspiration.
