This is a beginner's course in Zentangle, from drawing and creating your own Zentangle designs through to stitching them out. If you think you cannot draw, then don't let that put you off. Drawing skills are not required.
As a Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT) Lee Vause will give you lots of support and direction in this “A Zentangle Journey - Part One” workshop. This class will include the origins of Zentangle in its pen and paper-based form to include a little of the history leading to drawing on tiles and onward. Then use your own creations of Zentangle inspired artworks to transform them with free motion quilting onto fabric with thread. Being familiar with free-motion quilting is recommended.
This class can be followed by a more advanced class A Zentangle Journey part 2. You can find more details about that here: A Zentangle Journey part 2
