Zentangle Done

I finished Zentangle this week! The colors are all ones I normally wouldn't pick. I got them in grab bags from Hand Dyed Fibers, and decided to use them on this project. I think it worked. I learned how much I rely on overlapping areas on multi-page charts with this project -there were none until the last couple of parts. I know it's to be framed, but I don't know how it's going to be framed yet.

On the Last Part

Yay, I started the last part of Zentangle! This means I'll have one of my Marquoir stitchalong pieces done. It's a good thing because two more started this month... now on to stitch and finish this.

Next to Last

I completed the next to last part of Zentangle. One more section and it'll be done. The Marquoir group will be starting another Zentangle some time in the autumn. We haven't seen the design yet. I should be able to get this done once I finish up the part of the Kaleidoscope mandala I'm working on. I'm finishing only about a month and a half behind the people who completed it on time. Not bad for me.

And Now the Eighth

Yep, I got the eighth part of Zentangle done this week. It's got either two or three parts to go. I have the ninth part in my possession, but I won't work on it until I have part two of the Kaleidoscope Mandala done.

Part Six Tangled

I completed part six of Zentangle this week. I think I'm a bit more than halfway done with it now. I'm still two parts behind the others, as part eight was released last week. Once I get Tam's mystery done, I'll catch up more.

This is coming along pretty well. I'm halfway through part six now and the latest release was part eight. Since it comes out every three weeks, I should be catching up. I still like this despite stretching myself and using colors I normally would never pick.

More Real Progress

It only took me a couple of days to do it. I stitched part five of Marquoir's Zentangle. I'm now only two parts behind on this, so I'm catching up on everything gradually - at least, I'm completing parts in less time than they're releasing new ones!

Third Part Tangled

This is the third part of Zentangle, all done. I received the fourth part via email this evening, but I am not working on it until I get to Kosovo with it. I've been busy packing and such today - and will be leaving tomorrow evening! I'll still be updating my blog daily, though, and bringing stitching with me.

Zentangle Zebra

This second part of the zentangle flower looks like a zebra to me. I finished it off this week, but haven't taken a picture of it done. I'll be doing that tonight or tomorrow when the third part of Tam's mystery is done.

Zentangle Part 1 Done

I got part one done in plenty of time and I still like the colors. It will look autumn-ish. Now to wait for the next bit.

New Group Project

My German stitching group has started a new project (again). Yes, it's the second of three! projects they've started this month. This one is called Zentangle and is designed by Elke Reiss. I have the complete outline of part one done and just neeed to fill in the middle with blackwork. I went waaaay outside my normal color choices on this, using a piece of Vikki Clayton's linen I had around and yet another mystery spool of hers. I like the way the colors go together.
