Tea Bag Envelopes - Part 55

-

Back with some more tea bag envelopes!
Today we have the most of the All Dent variations. Ready to check them? 

Here we have the basic All Dent, super regular, with all elements of the same size. I probably put the all dots at the beginning, in Huggins and Cadent style. I have used the pattern as a fragment and used the same filling when it looked like the same piece came up. I ended up with 5 different patterns for the fragments. Which is kind of an unusual, number. I find it fascinating. Maybe I should have called it with some Five in it.
Names are names. They are not so important, to be honest.

We already got acquainted with Aqite here, right? But here I played with different clouds.

This Crazy All Dent is nothing special, but I like the spirals! Worth a pattern? Ah, maybe not.

And here we have the first All Tao. As with many fragments of this kind, I like to keep several empty.

Simply the basic shape and using the columns as fragments. All Dent or Crazy All Dent? I would go for All Dent, it does not look so crazy!

And this is Crazy All Dent. Probably some Dentleaf and Dentblade lost in teh middle, but using Paradox in every fragment makes it difficult to identify the shapes. It is a bit messy, but tea bag envelopes are often experiments, and I like also the strange ones.

Another Crazy All Dent, but this one is simple, only with an aura.

Borgoid - Zentangle from the space!

-
Image
I usually draw flowers, stars, petals, sometimes curly ribbons. And then while training for Ambacco another of my favourite patterns came out. Borgoid. It reminds me a starship from the bad guys (the Borg... are you team Star Trek or Star Wars? I am with no doubt a Trekkie, Dr Spock was my first love when I was two). And an asteroid. And so... Borgoid! Borgoid, Ambacco, Dentini, Fescu, Wurf, Okome, Tunnelvizion, Kemistri, Printemps, Flux, Roloflex, Fuzfur, Frozen Nandini, Fricle. 8-11 October 2025 This is actually when it came out!

About Shading

I have been struggling with shading. At the beginning of my tangle adventure, I simply skipped shading. Then I started doing it every now and then, when I felt inspired. Now I am following the Zentangle Primer 1 and I feel like I must do it. And then I reached chapter 4. Shading. My hope was that all secrets about shading would have been unveiled, but I felt like they weren't. Since I did not want to go to Chapter 5 without being a bit better at shading, and still had two tiles to fill a page of 6, I was checking the web. And Barbara Langston came up, with this video I indeed recommend it if you want to learn something about different ways of shading. If you are a bit in a rush, check this post or the following video with 7 tips about shading by Tracy Ann Wilkinson. More than tips these are questions we need to answer to understand what we want. I also did a tile inspired by the following video by Miura Takao. Not usual shading, but cross hatching is also an option! In the end I di...

Uaso - spreading wings and tails all around

-
Image
I arrived just some hours ago at my CZT seminar in Munich, but I will talk about it in more detail in another post (or more) after digesting everything. So many people around, so many languages (one of my passions, as some of you could already know)... and a long long way to the hotel. Here you can find one of my go-to patterns when I have to fill space. Lately, at least. I came up with it at a dinner with friends, I surely told a bit about it with my last bookmark post. Uaso is actually a kind of transliteration of oiseau, bird in French. Easy as that.  Uaso, Tipple, Corfo, Fronde, Printemps, Flux, Gelijoy, Marasu, Tripoli, Moon Pie. 15 January 2026 Oh, this is the first pattern I added to my pattern book this year. I have not worked on my pattern sketchbook extensively, since I have been doing a part of project pack 28 and working mostly on my reference catalog. I have many patterns to add, many new in the tea bag envelopes I did not add yet, many in my brain storming pages. My p...
