			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I can&#8217;t believe how busy things have gotten lately. And no, unfortunately I&#8217;m not talking about longarm busy.</p>
<p>Just life.</p>
<p>I did manage to finish my &#8220;Thistle Garden&#8221; quilt but haven&#8217;t had time to take photos.  I have not had time to work on my Puppy wallhanging either, but maybe this will be my next to-do.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll tell you the one thing I&#8217;ve been doing that is absolutly adicting however.  My once-a-month quilt group (Knot Even Quilters) introduced me to <a title="Zentangle web site" href="http://zentangle.com/index.php" target="_blank">Zentangles</a>.  This is so much fun!  I have been creating all kinds of wonderful little pictures. What are they? They are ways to make little pictures using repetitive patterns. They are very creative and if you purchase a small sketch book, they are very portable.</p>
<p>These are a few of my favorite creations (there must be something deeply psychological about these &#8212; I&#8217;ve noticed that almost every one of mine has a &#8220;quilt&#8221; embedded somewhere):</p>

<p><a href="http://threadbearquilting.com/tblog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/zen_heartworm.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-66" title="zen_heartworm" src="http://threadbearquilting.com/tblog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/zen_heartworm-201x300.jpg" oncontextmenu="return false;" alt="" width="201" height="300" /></a><a href="http://threadbearquilting.com/tblog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/zen_worm.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-64" title="zen_worm" src="http://threadbearquilting.com/tblog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/zen_worm-201x300.jpg" oncontextmenu="return false;" alt="" width="201" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Now the next step is to try to make a quilt from one of these.  If any of you have done that, can you please share?</p>
<p>Happy Quilting (or Zentangling!)</p>
