Diva Challenge #197 Takes 1 & 3

That's right, 1 and 3. Why? Because take 2 was so absolutely hideous that I just don't have the guts to post it.

Take 1                    A fairly simple 3-Aruka arrangement on a Bijou tile.
Tangles used: Arukas, Hurry

Take 2  On this one I took Arukas's natural weave and used it to create an Auraknot in the center.  
Tangles used: Arukas, Auraknot

    The combination of arukas and auraknot is a great idea and your tile looks amazing :-)

    I love them both! Very creative to use Auraknot to tie into Arukas!

    Very imaginative weaving of multiple akuras. One akura can get kind of monotonous. You figured out a nice way to liven it up. Cool.

    Well done! But ... why didn't we get a glimpse of take 2? ... OK, we all do the same: too "yuck!" is just too "berk!" - in French ;) -
    Both your tiles are great: auraknot was a great idea but my heart goes out to your bijou tile that looks like the sky on a clear August night when we're waching for falling stars.

    Lovely tiles and workmanship. How about Take 2? I bet it's just you critiquing your own work. Which Tangles did you use in it?
