Diva Challenge #96

Trying to tie up two tangles with one tile...I'm getting frustrated. I don't know if it's the tile limits that are wearing my patience, or something else. I feel like I'm missing...possibilities? I haven't played with a spiral in months, or just a big Zia for the fun of it. I've stuck myself in this pattern of completing specific strings and that's messing with what I feel like I should be able to get out of the process maybe...But I have such limited time to play, I think if I don't stick to some sort of constraint I wouldn't accomplish anything...Vicious circle and I'm getting bored...fast...

This week's Diva Challenge is to use Maria Thomas' flourish pattern Zinger, which I LOVE!! I've seen some great ideas inspired from this simple little design and I really, really wanted to have fun and just play...Then there sits my One Zentangle a Day book with the project I've neglected to finish for the past three or four days...and so I figured I'd just pop a few Zingers in with the day's patterns...

I do need to stop. Stop trying to cram things in, stop playing catch up. And just let it all go, all the pressure and expectations, and just....play...There is so much fun to be had with Zinger and I'm missing the boat!

Anyways...off to enjoy the day, our family, the food. I feel like I want to go lighthouse exploring...I Googled a map of lighthouses in Cape Cod and Southeast Mass...and there are tons more to tour all the way up the coast. Perhaps a new quest, seeing how many lighthouses we can visit?? Yes?
