Tangled T-Day No. 9

Welcome back for another Tangled T-Day! While my schedule has been rather crazy lately I have done quite a bit of tangling in between other commitments, and I’m glad to be able to share the details with you in today’s post. Hope you enjoy!

This past week I taught the first half an “Introduction to Zentangle” class with two students – one who has already taken the class with me and one (a friend of hers) who’s new – and had a fun time tangling and chatting throughout the evening. Here’s the mosaic from the class.

Introduction to Zentangle class tiles

The evening started a bit late and then slipped away rather quickly, so in light of everyone’s busy schedules the next day we decided to hold off on completing the second half of the class until another time. Something to look forward to!

New Tangles

Since my previous Tangled T-Day post I have learned the following new-to-me tangles.

From TanglePatterns.com:

WIP

I recently spent some time organizing my studio, and was surprised to see how large my WIP pile is. This picture doesn’t even include all of the pieces I’ve started and then abandoned, but it gives you an idea of how much I’ve left unfinished.

WIP

Guess it might be an idea for me to think twice about starting something new when I’ve got so much remaining to be completed!

Finished Projects

This piece was done on a sheet of blue Canson Mi-Teintes Pastel paper cut down to a 9″ x 9″ square.

ZIA 120

It’s unfortunate that I wasn’t able to pick up the true colour of the page and the photo ended up looking more grey in tone – the original was actually a really lovely shade of dark dusty blue.

This was my tile from the class I mentioned earlier.

I’m working to finish a crocheted afghan for my son, whose birthday is coming up. After that, I don’t know what I might do. Maybe I should face my own closet of crochet WIPs – funny how all us creatives seem to have one…

Glad that I am not the only one with a stack of work to finish! Nice tiles from you class and your Zingo tile is pretty.

Very nice class results, and I’m fond of your beautiful way of drawing Printemps in combination with this lovely new tangle.

Love your ZIA–so intricate. You must have worlds of patience! Your class tiles are great, too. Their Cubines look much better than mine. You have talented students!

Your productivity continues to leave me in awe. I have an unfinished quilt tucked away somewhere. One thing I like about tangling is that the odds are greater that I will actually complete my “works”. Your Zingo tile is suitably zingy. Printemps is a great choice for the background. Why didn’t I think of that? We survived our storm–ess snow than expected (only about 8 inches), but more ice. In any case, it’s finally starting to melt away as it warms up again.
