An Old Ensemble & Live Tangles

A gift ensemble for my sister.











Look at this lizard ... I was looking at my photos from our trip across the Nhullabor in March this year and remembered how fast this little fellow was.   Look at the patterns on his back - wonderful aren't they.

Happy Tangling for now .... Jane x

New Patterns and My Fabric Ensemble

A couple of weeks ago I started doing this fabric zentangle ensemble - you will see that it is one of the Zentangle official ensembles - I have just stitched it into fabric with stabiliser, then drawn on the fabric with my Micron pen 01 - using a lot of my own patterns.   The poor little tile on the bottom right hand corner is what NOT to do with an iron - way too hot and I didn't test it first.  So I have to re-do this one. 

Oh and check out the Zentangle blog ... they have posted Molly's Ensemble .... beautiful!




This is one of the tiles with satin stitch around the edge.  I have made these tiles 4.5 inch square and they make really nice coffee cup coasters ... I have been making a few of these for my Mum - but with coffee motifs on them.   I will seal the fabric with fabric medium, although I think the Pigma pen will be permanent.






 Now for some new patterns of mine ... I am not sure what to call this one ... still thinking of a name - any suggestions?















This is "Stackz"
















A variation of Stacks












And "DOMINOS"   I just love Dominos and thought this was a great tangle pattern.  I have used it in my ensemble at the top but have put cross hatching behind the dominos for a different look.   And those curley bits on the right of this tile ... I guess someone has done those before ...maybe.

Okay that's it for today ... I am still working on my A3 piece - slowly I might add.

Happy Tangling for now ... Jane xxx
