I have begun my first zentangle in fabric, and this is what the beginning looks like.
I have used 11 different fabrics. I thought that by using patterned fabrics, it would simulate the look of zentangles, but after fusing the fabrics down, I decided that it needed additional stitching.
I have stitched, either with the walking foot, or free motion, on each of the fabrics. The two lower fabrics were just outlined, although on the left side I added some dots with a permanent marker in the orange areas. See the detail shots below:
The two larger circles are ultrasuede, with gold beads around the outside. I still have to add antennae and I may add some more beads, not sure about that yet. Zentangling in fabric is a bit more work than on zentangling on paper, but it is just as much fun. It certainly takes collaging to another level!
