Challenges of the week: Spiral out & Tackle It Tuesday

I have lots of tiles to share! But here are just three. 

Diva Challenge #160: Spiral Out, Keep Going

The Diva's string theory challenge had a song associated with it, but darned if I know what it's from. 

So here's my tile. I really enjoyed doing this tile, but I haven't been inspired to do others with the spiral. I think it's too open-ended for me. Too many choices! Rain was calling me, as was Mooka, which is often a challenge in itself!

Tackle It Tuesday: Tangles starting with E

This is my first "TIT" (giggle, giggle) for Cheryl's Tackle It Tuesday challenge. I enjoyed this! I got to know some of the tangles by name, and practice ones that I may have skipped over or not put much thought into after finishing the "One Zentangle a Day" book (Beckah Krahula).  

Tangles used are Enyshou, Eke, Ennies and Echoism.

New tangle! Mystery step outs!

In a recent post/email newsletter from Zentangle founders, Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas, a new tangle was announced -- Rixty!

Only Certified Zentangle Teachers were given the step-outs so far, so I had to take a guess. And I think I may have gotten it ....

On the homefront

The days are getting longer, and even though the air is still so cold (18 degrees F this morning), I can smell spring in the air. It's coming.

I've been struggling with having a lot of different things on my plate. There are worse problems to have, I suppose, than to be too busy and easily overwhelmed. I find that I really like to start new projects, new websites, new whatevers but then I get bored or I figure something out and I'm ready to move on to the next. 

Here's to focus. 

Have a great weekend!
