Yay! I finished Zentangle last night - I do love this design. I'd planned to start the second Zentangle, but I'm debating how. Do I stitch this one in the same color thread and fabric, or change it up? Originally, I'd hoped to stitch them identically and frame them in a double mat. However, the size of the second one is too large. Decisions, decisions. :)design by Kirsten Schmitt and Elke Reiss for the Marquoir Yahoo Group

It's actually a beautiful day here. We did have thunder several times yesterday; hmmm, wonder if it will bring snow? Too bad the forecast shows 50 degree weather for the next ten days!

Wunderschön deine beiden Werke,
liebe grüße Beate
that is pretty Carolyn! I don't know if I could do that second one thou. WOW! That is big!!!
WOW!!! Great finish!! Such a vibrant piece! I don't know if I could do a 2nd one, either :)
I love your Zentangle! Such a wild, fun design!
Wild colors. Wow!
WOW, that is beautiful. If you want do the next one in complimentary colors and put them next to each other after framing.
What a great finish! I love the colors.
What a beautiful design! I love it.
That is wild, I love it!
Congrats on the beautiful finish! My grandma was saying that after first thunder there is a spring coming.
Love it! It would be hard for me not to do a second one. I would continue the same threads it you plan to hang them on the same wall.
It's hitting 60degrees in the Upstate, SC. Love this Sunshine!
How fun! Congrats on the finish!
What a great finish! Love the bright colors.
Stunning! Such an eye catcher! Great job
Congrats on a beautiful finish!
Carolyn,
That is so beautiful! You did a great job. Congratulations on your finish.
Congratulations on finishing Zentangle it looks great.
Very pretty Carolyn! Love the bright colors. Wish it would snow here just for a day! Oh well...maybe in February.
Fabulous!! Wonderful colors!!
Love and Hugs!!

A lovely finish Carolyn, congrats. The colours are fabulous. Look forward to seeing what you decide on on the next one.
Very colorful and cheery, Carolyn! Well done!
That's a great piece! I love all the little different stitches inside the design. I'm however no help on trying to figure out what to do with a bigger piece that you want to mat side by side!
Wonderful finish Carolyn! Love it!
Looks really good!
Oh what a beautiful piece :) Congratulations on the finish.
Carolyn, it's beautiful!
Never seen anything quite like this but I absolutely love it..Great finish!!
Great finish. Hope you decide what colours you want to stitch your next picture with.

wow..that looks pretty
Ooo, there's that color that I'm needing these days! What a fun stitch!
WOW !!! Your Zentangle finish is spectacular. I love the colors !!!! Enjoy your Happy Dance.
Congratulations Carolyn! Beautiful finish x
I love this piece, it is so colourful. Well done Carolyn!
Great finish! Not sure what to tell you on the second one though.. maybe change it up since you can't frame them together like you'd hoped..
Wow looks great hun well done, gd luck with the 2nd one xxx
Carolyn, that is beautiful!
that is beautiful i love the colors
That is too cool. Fantastic finish! My thought would be to use the same colors, with similar mat, and frame to make a collage - you know there will be more! OK - is there something hiding in the first that I don't see other than the flower? I see the scissors prominently in the second.
How beautiful! I've never seen such a design.

Congratulations on finishing it, Carolyn! It and its companion make me think of Mardi Gras...
Oh wow what amazing designs and colours! Well done. x
WOW! Zentangle is beautiful!! Great Job!
Zentangle 2, how about stitching the scissors in gold or silver and the rest in the same color as #1? I do like the monotone example too... Glad it's not me having to make the final decision!LOL
Good Luck!
Congrats on the finish, Carolyn. That's a lively, colorful piece.
These are WONDERFUL!
What a great pattern. It reminds me of the Mardi Gras decorations we have up at school right now.

Congrats on your finish, Carolyn.
Gorgeous finish Carolyn. Love your colors. I still have to start mine...lol.
All I can say is WOW!! I love them both, but the one done with the scissors in the middle is my favorite. I love the colors of the other one. You did a lovely job, really, it must have been a lot of counting to make it look just right! Well done! *Hugs*
What a vibrant finish, Carolyn--really brightens my day :)
Congratulations on a very colorful finish.
I love that it's so different and colourful!
Love, love, love that one. The colors are wonderful.
Like the scissors in the center of the next one. You could do it over one?
Really gorgeous!
Really gorgeous!
Beautiful! Congrats on your finish. How about pic one of the colours from the awesome floss colour you used and stitch it in that to at least compliment it!
Carolyn,
Thank you for your lovely comment and telling me about your mother recovery. It gives me much hope that my mother will recover too.
Congrats on your wonderful finish, I just love these cheerful colors!
Hi Carolyn,
It is beautiful I had never heard of a Zenatngle till I saw it on your blog, how I wish I had more hours in the day and more days to stitch because that Zentangke would be on my list of 'to-dos' !!
Waiting to see it framed.
And looks like spring is with you there, milder here in Coventry UK but no snowdrops flowering yet which I think heralds the spring.
Love and Blessings

That is gorgeous, Carolyn. I love it. Congrats on such a great finish.
The Zentangle is so pretty. I love the colors.
Beautiful finish. Can't wait to see how you decided to do the new one.
Zentangles looks gorgeous. Love all the different colors.
You could always design a small one of your own and turn the whole project into a triptych (sp?)
WooHoo, the Zentangle is done. It's so vibrant, love the colors.
Fabulous colors. Congrats on the finish!!
Congrats on your finish!! Nice done and lovely colors as well.
hugs,
Wendy
That is SO cool, Carolyn! I've started doing Zentangles with pen (supposed to relieve stress) Doing one with threads would be a lot of fun too! (although I don't know if it would be as relaxing! lol)
Thanks for sharing this with us, and for introducing to me, an new way for me to do them! What fun!!
Great job on the stitching. Hey, we have about 18" of snow here if you want to make more of that snow cream LOL
I love your blog and love all your stitching works. I saw your Zentangle and fell in love with it. I was excited about the group you posted but am afraid to try and join not sure they'll allow newcomers who aren't french or french speaking. Congratulations on your DD's upcoming wedding.
Take care, Michelle
Carolyn, this is beautiful! I love the bright colors that you used.
Can you tell me who the designer is, or where the pattern can be located? I would love to try stitching a Zentangle!
