Alphabet Soup

My latest ZIA is bigger and bolder too. Late last year Sue Jacobs posted her fabulous Alphabet Soup idea. Start with a tangle beginning with the letter A and continue through to Z. Sue's lovely tangle creations are on 5 tiles. I enjoyed tangling on the large watercolour paper so I decided to do the whole alphabet in one, with a touch of pumpkin colour to make a big hearty pot of Alphabet Soup.



Size: 57.5cm x 77cm   (22 1/2" x 30")

To help with the recipe I reached for Linda Farmer's wonderful Tangle Patterns.com Tangle Guide.

    Great idea, Shelly! Lovely piece! I wonder how many pieces you could do with the alphabet since there are so many tangled out there now.

    It's a delicious blend of delectable tangles from your Zentangle pantry. The sprinkling of spices is just enough to emphasize the tangles and occasional negative space. Lovely, Shelly.
