Nine week Ensemble

Nine weeks ago we planned a trip to celebrate Paul's 60th birthday, to help count down the weeks I started an ensemble with The Diva's Weekly Challenges.
Time is up, we are packed and ready for our adventure to see the sights and culture of Vietnam.

Citius, Altius, Fortius

Faster, Higher, Stronger. Rho Densmore has stepped in to help out with The Diva's weekly challenge #79 and to celebrate the up and coming Olympics we are getting into the spirit of participation with the Olympic rings.
The tile is the last of my 9 week Diva Challenge ensemble. I will post the complete ensemble later in the week.
The ZIA was last weeks 'just for fun project' and by coincidence the rings have a bit of an Olympic skewwhiff style.  Zentangle is such a treat and a joyful way to participate and share.

Auraknot

The Diva's Weekly Challenge #78

Auraknot, our new Zentangle official tangle is the star of the show this week. I saw stars the first time I saw auraknot but now I see flowers. My step-out was a bit off balance by the way. Check out the proper steps on Rick and Maria's video. Super fun!

Linking Circles

Linking circles gives you a starting and finishing point, it helps with an even look. Start tangling at the cross over line and continue around. Tripoli triangles, purk and zander fit well into a circular string. I love the 'peeping through, over and under' aspect of Zentangle.

Size: A4  (8" x 11")

Fiore di Pietro

Our weekly challenge #77 from The Diva is by Rho Densmore CZT. Rho has created a special tangle to honour the life of her late brother-in-law and named it Fiore di Pietro (Peter's flower). It is a delightful tangle which has many different looks and ways to explore patterns.
Rho, I am sorry for your sadness, you have permission to use my tile.
