Zendala Dare #97

Zendala Dare # 97 is a little late in getting posted. Finally, here it is.

An Audio Meditation

Since participating in an audio meditation with Molly Hollibaugh (CZT) at a Zentangle seminar, Holly at Ha Designs became inspired to make a Zentangle audio meditation and graciously wanted to share it with the Zentangle community.

Holly's soft gentle voice and simple, easy to follow instructions were pleasant to listen to while tangling.

This is the Bijou tile I completed following Holly's Zentangle audio meditation.

 

I certainly hope Holly produces more of these audio meditations.

Many thanks Holly.

 

Weekly Challenge #205: "Year of the Goat"

Chinese New Year 2015: Celebration Of The New Lunar Year In Australia

February 19th, 2015 celebrates Chinese New Year. According to Chinese astrology, each year (starting from Chinese New Year) is associated with an animal sign, occurring in a 12 year cycle. This new cycle begins the "Year of the Goat".

So, in celebration of the Chinese New Year, The Diva has challenged us to incorporate the Chinese New year into our tile.

I used the Capricorn (goat zodiac sign) star constellation as my string. As I was looking at maps of the stars I decided to include Suzanne McNeill’s tangle pattern 'star map' as part of my tile.

Below are images of my string and completed tile for your enjoyment.

If you would like to take a look at other people's submissions to this weeks Diva's challenge, then head on over to The Diva's Blog and click on the links to other wonderful tiles.

Have a grand Chinese New Year & happy tangling everyone.

Weekly Challenge #203: "UMT - Athitzi by Eleanor Holt"

Athitzi, by Seven, was the pattern for this weeks Diva Challenge. The first week in the month is a UMT (use my tangle) challenge. Athitzi is such a fun pattern using many short lines.

Fun, fun, fun. If you haven't tried athitzi, give it a go.
Also check out other peoples use of athitzi by clicking on the links at the bottom of the page on the Diva's blog.
