Zendala Dare #29

This was an interesting template. Many of the sections lent themselves do auras but was not sure about tangles. Was fun to do. As usual, started out with ideas about what I wanted to do but as it progressed made some changes. Nothing major, but felt that there were some better options. Another reminder that it is about the process. Was able to get this one done relatively early compared to when I completed the others. Hope you enjoy it.



Tangles used: Auraknot, Paradox, Tripoli, Mooka, Indyrella, Purk, and Tipple.

This may be the last Dare I will participate in for a couple of weeks. Is a Christmas Bazaar scheduled for the first week in December by the local Art Association. Hoping to get somethings done so can have a display and maybe even do some demonstrations. Hoping it will generate some interest for classes.

    1. The edging is Mary Kissel's tangle. Are you going to start doing any of the Dare/Challenges?

  3. Nicely done - was wondering about the edging really like the looks of it. Looks easy enough to replicate - is it published anywhere?

    1. As far as I know it is not. Mary was a fellow CZT 10 and it was one that she did on her name tag. She was kind enough to give me a simple step out in my journal. Will contact her and see what her plans are.

    1. I am not sure if that is the correct spelling of the tangle. I am not sure if there is a step out on zentangle.com. It is one of Molly's and one of the official 102 tangles.

    2. I checked and I think the correct spelling is now under the picture. It is Indyrella.

    1. Thanks. Not sure why, but I thought of these two right away when I saw the template. Was not really sure about it until after I did the shading. I think it helped separate the two.
