Well… I mentioned in my previous Tangled Tuesday post that “taking a bit of a break” to enjoy visiting with our houseguests was my sole tangling goal for the week, and I most certainly fulfilled it! So today’s Tangled Tuesday post will be a little more sparse than usual, but please bear with me – I’m planning to get right back at it, so I’m sure there will be LOTS to tell next week!
Tangling Goodies
Not precisely a tangling goodie, but I was excited to sell two more of my Zentangle®1 tiles, bringing me to just over 10% of my GoFundMe goal. This whole selling my art to raise money thing is extremely slow going, but I have faith that I’ll get to that CZT seminar yet!
New Tangles
This week I learned Cootie, Corn Rows, and Crescent Moon Variation, all from Joy of Zentangle. (If you’re following along in Joy of Zentangle you might notice that I’ve been skipping a few of the designs. This isn’t because I didn’t like or want to do them, but because I’ve previously learned them through one of my other books. As I mentioned in an earlier post, there is often overlap and some repetition between the various Zentangle books.)
Tangling-in-Progress
I didn’t get any tangling done this week, so I’m still working on designing the letter G in my alphabet series. Here’s hoping I can finish it this week!
Finished Projects
Move along… nothing to see here…
Wait, no! Even though I haven’t got any NEW finished projects to share, I can still offer a bit of eye candy via some of my earlier pieces which haven’t yet been featured on Alphabet Salad. So here you go. 
ZIA 2
ZIA 4
ZIA 5
Hope you enjoyed!
Coming Soon
This week’s tangling goals include:
- Photograph my previously-completed set of four Zendalas and set up listings to sell the originals in my as-yet-to-be-opened Etsy store. (Yes, I know this was on my list previously, but I still haven’t managed to complete the task. This time it’s going in my Filofax so I’ll actually get it done!)
- Carry on with my Zenletter collection.
- Continue adding products to Ten Thousand Tangles.
- Create pieces for new sponsors.
P.S.

Thank you so much-this brought back memories of something I used to love to do as a child – Spirograph. I’m sure I’m not making zentangles when I used a Spirograph but I remember how relaxing it was to use it. I haven’t thought about Spirographs for such a longtime. Thank you for the memory!

You’re most welcome! I remember Spirograph – that was something I too loved as a child.
