Things sure got a bit sticky! It is all good fun as we tangle and twirl our way through this project. It is a good reminder for us all to slow down and laugh together because isn't that what holidays are all about?
Today we have Rick (and Maria!) spanning the tiles and adding more spiraling love. Let's all appreciate this time together.

Welcome to Zentangle Project Pack No. 22 and the eleventh day of the 2023 Twelve Days of Zentangle!
As so many of you tangle enthusiasts know ... The Zentangle Method is an easy-to-learn, relaxing, and fun way to create beautiful images by drawing structured patterns that we call tangles. You create tangles with combinations of dots, lines, simple curves, S-curves, and orbs. There are a few tangles in the history of the Zentangle Method that are known more and used more often and manipulated more than others. Their forms are basic, resilient, familiar and they have the potential to be so much more in so many ways.
This project pack will take a deep dive into one tangle and all that it stands for. As usual, we are taking a very creative, outside the box approach to this fun theme.
Tangle along with Rick as he and Maria guide you through the 11th video in this series.
We are very excited about the content we have for this Project Pack, but we also realize that we have packed a lot in to the twelve days. So, we wanted you all to know that it is OK to take it all in at whatever pace you need to. If you have not already, take a look at Molly's most recent blog on tangling at your own pace.
Day 11
Please share your creations on the Zentangle Mosaic App using the hashtags #PP22 #PP22Day11 and #12DaysofZentangle2023.
Share your thoughts in the comments below and each day, Bijou will randomly select one commenter to receive a Zentangle surprise! All winners will be announced in the final blog of this series.

I am loving this PP. I’m still on Day 08 but enjoy seeing what’s coming on the big 4!

I cannot wait to shade this tomorrow (though technically it’s already the 12th here in Australia). I’d forgotten that Hollis had its origins in Taiwan — such a beautiful part of the world. I went to Taipei many years ago, and had the best dumplings ever. I will be paying much more attention to patterns in fabric, pottery etc. after listening to this video. Thank you!

So good to hear conversations with Rick and Maria. I miss the discussions and stories while you tangle.

I love this project pack and the phi-tiles, the spirals, the process of tangle along and the outcome. Thank you for this time with you.

This is coming together nicely! I love crazy nzeppel and love the additional embellishment to it! Can’t wait to see the shading and the end product tomorrow.
