    Any Zentanglers out there??? I've thought about buying Suzanne McNeill's books but I hate to buy something without knowing its worth it. So, does anyone have her books? Are they worth buying? Has anyone used it on fabric? Like I need another obsession :roll:

    I play around with it, but so far only pen and paper. I've got too many quilt projects in line right now.

    I really REALLY enjoy Zentangles. If you google "zentangles" you will have lots of images from which to draw inspiration. I was asked to design a playing card for a game called Tichu. The card I was to design was the '9 of Stars'. I use zentangles in the design.

    Interesting idea! Her books are fairly reasonable on Amazon

    I bought the book and didn't really think it was worth it. I've been doing it since junior high school just didn't know it had a name!
