In the middle of the night ...

In the middle of the night ... now there is a song about that somewhere! 

...but  in the middle of last night, around 2am, I woke up and felt like Tangle Time.    Yesterday afternoon I had been making some journals from my beautiful Fabriano Artistico extra white hot pressed paper and had a few off cuts. I pulled out my trusty little pattern book and skipped the pages until a pattern caught my eye ... I love these patterns  -  did I tell you I only use official Zentangle patterns and my own patterns in my drawings - otherwise I would not remember where they came from. 
 What do you think .... a little snapshot about six inches long.  Zentangle love love love!
Jet says he likes it too - the getting up early business 'cause it is amazing what you can see out the windows in the dark!


Hope you get your tangle on today too ... Jane x








Edit:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U94lGTSzaoU    just in case you want to hear Billy Joel sing "In the middle of the night" ... I do like this song!

Zentangle Inspired Quilting

 Zentangle has been calling my name again!   I have done a little quilting on a wall hanging ... using Silver metallic thread (Superior) and black So Fine (Superior) ... So this is not the finished piece ... I will post more when I have done some more ... in a few weeks perhaps.   The Zentangle "tiles" will be quilted as if they are little drawings.    I was inspired by one of my drawings in my Journal in February.    Keeping a journal is a wonderful thing!
This is the whole piece still on my longarm machine - it is very nice to be enthused and excited by a project again.

Enjoy and happy tangling ... Jane x
