Introducing a new tangle: Kepi

On this week’s Tangle Time sessions, we had another World Premier! Debbi Minero has done it again! In a sidestep with Zentangle’s® Project Pack 21, I thought it would be perfect to feature these now. Yesterday, we introduced Stargazer, today we introduce Kepi (keh-pee).

Here is some of Debbi’s gorgeous work with both Stargazer and Kepi!!

Here’s Debbi’s step-out on Stargazer.

Introducing a new tangle: DotBall

On this week’s Tangle Time and in our paid class, Secret Garden, we Premiered Dot Ball by CZT Barbara Duel Johnson.

Here is what Barbara wrote to me about this tangle: “Attached is probably the easiest tangle ever drawn, LOL. It is my tangle, “DotBall”.  I first started drawing this many, many years ago, as a teenager.  I love to put background tangles in tiles, to fill up airspace.  I remembered “DotBall”, and thought it was perfect.  I started using it in everything – background tangles, in grids, borders, as snowflakes, as stars in the sky, as fireworks, with lace designs, garden type motifs, etc. You can make it large, or tiny.  The key to “DotBall” is the spacing of the dots around the ball, so to speak.  The easiest way to do it is to make the dot in the center, then put one at 12 and at 6, and then fill in with 2 ,4, 8, and 10.  Sometimes I shade and smudge around it for more drama.”

Just look at these beautiful samples!

Here is Barbara’s step-out:

Enjoy!!

Introducing a new tangle: Sassooka

Here are some of Debbi’s gorgeous samples! (Click on them to see full image.)

Introducing a new tangle: SassyPants

On this week’s Tangle Time sessions, we are having another World Premier! It will actually be a double! Debbi Minero’s, Sassy Pants and Sassooka. On this post, we are sharing her Sassy pants

In Debbi’s post about her new tangle, she says: “Played with my new tangle a little more and decided I am happy with it. Remembering the take off and land technique is what was needed for me to be happy. This is Sassy Pants (thank you Inez West for changing my mind on the name). This tangle was for granddaughter #2 Jessica. If take a close look it started of as 2 “J”s end to end, but thought well that is not in the true Zentangle methodology, so we start with a curve “c” shape, make it more curvy and turn it into an s shape and add more curves. Throw a few lines to look like an “A” and there you go. When Inez mentioned sassy, I laughed because Jessica’s nickname is #misssassypants . We say she is all sassy and smart a$$y.”

Here are some of Debbi’s gorgeous samples!

… and here’s how to do it!

Introducing a new tangle: Buzzz

On this week’s Tangle Time sessions, we had a double World Premier! First was Dottyr and we added in Buzzz, also by Debbi Minero.

Oh her post in the Tangle Addicts Facebook group, Debbi says “I have had a few people message me about the name of the little critters in the background on my bookmark. I have no clue if there is a Tangle out there, I have just always drawn this little guy. If no tangle exists, then here you go. We will call it Buzzz.” I don’t believe I’ve seen anything even close – So welcome this adorable tangle, Buzzz!!

Here is Debbi’s bookmark, with Buzzz, Glicjam by CZT Yasmina Lena and Therefore by Zentangle.

… and here’s how to do it!
