The FIRST one!

After our SummerBreak, we will Start again! Yay! Join the Fun!

The SwapPicture shows you all the ATC I got in the last Round! - looks great! - for a bigger Picture --> Blogpost


For this round i thought of adding am extra challenge! On every ATC - you have to use at least one tangle starting with the Letter we're doing! Check http://tanglepatterns.com/ for Ideas!


  • tangle an upper case A
  • On ATC sized, 2.5 inch x3.5 inch (64mmx89mm) card stock or similar sturdy paper.
  • You will have 1 swap partner for one tangled A ATC.
  • Adding a color or using a colored paper or color washed background is optional.

The usual Swap-bot rules apply. Newbie are welcome as long as they follow the swap requirements. Flaking will not be tolerated and you must be in good standing. Any problems contact your swap partner!

Please make sure you are doing your best on these. I have had some people comment on receiving questionable zentangles. They have been generous in their ratings, but your zentangles should be taking some time and effort. Don't just slap some lines on a card, draw a letter and call it a day.

Please make sure that you've sent out the last Weeks ATC, otherwise i can't let you join this weeks ATC

  • Saturday: Signing up Day
  • Sunday: I'll assign the partners
  • Friday: last Day to send out your ATC

I or someone else will be having 'Letter Make-Up swaps' from time to time, too, if you miss a letter and want to get caught up!

Happy Zentangling!

I am so glad you decided to do this again. I love the added challenge (although I have been doing this already)!

I was so unsure if I'll be able to host another 26 Week Challenge - but once i took out my sakura pens I was fully hooked again! How could i stopped tangling? ^^

I've been doing zentangles for 20 years and had no idea there was a whole site dedicated to tangle types. Very cool! Thanks for the link.

I have never made a Zentangle..never even heard of it before. But by saying "On every ATC - you have to use at least one tangle starting with the Letter we're doing!" you mean the style right? Like, when I follow the link, and go to A it first says "Afterglo" So one part of the card would need to be done using this pattern for example? I am quite artsy and am considering taking part in this, but just want to make sure I don't get it wrong. If you go on my profile, there are links to what I usually do.
