Happy Tangled Tuesday! I started writing this post with the overall impression that it had been a rather quiet week in my world of tangling, but as I looked back I discovered that I actually got quite a bit accomplished (particularly considering that I’ve been feeling under the weather lately). Read on to find out what I’ve been up to!
New Tangles
I learned some interesting new tangles this week: Fengle, Luv-a, Kozy, Ozzie, Lolo, and Phroz, all from TanglePatterns.com. I particularly like Luv-a, and used it (along with a couple of the other new ones) on my current WIP (more on that below!).
Tangling in Progress
I started a new 8″ x 10″ WIP this week – not sure when it’ll be finished or how it’ll look when it’s all done (am I ever?!), but here are a couple of in-progress pictures to give you a taste of it.

Lots of black, huh? Let me tell you, I’ve already motored through a good many hours of my current audiobook – not to mention a LOT of ink! – while colouring in the background on this particular piece.
Finished Projects
In my previous Tangled Tuesday post I mentioned that one of my in-progress pieces was almost done, and as expected I was able to finish it off this week.
ZIA 32
Unfortunately, though, I haven’t done The Diva’s Challenge for this week yet. I’m not sure whether or not I’ll get to it – I find that if I don’t do it on the Monday each week (my day off), it never seems to happen! We’ll just have to see.

I love the process of creating one, especially when you get lost in it.

For someone under the weather lately Laurel, I can’t believe how many zentangles you have done/learnt! I love these new ones and even with just the black and white they look great! I especially love the top one as it has heart shapes on it. 😉 Umm, by the way, when are you coming out this way to teach us bloggers and friends how to do such magnificent art! 😉 <3

Too funny! I find it so interesting how they end up, with little pre-planning on my part – each one truly is its own unique piece.

I love the patterns you put together. I haven’t tangled in so long! Lately it has been a bit of a struggle to post. Since I got a keyboard for Christmas I have been lost in my music…playing for hours! ♥
