"It's a String Thing" #267

It's Tuesday, your good news day!

I am packing my bags to travel to Rhode Island for zenAgain 2018, the second CZT reunion hosted by the good people at Zentangle®. 

The first reunion was held in 2016 in the beautiful seaside city of Newport. 
This one is to be held in Providence where I attended the 10th CZT training seminar over seven years ago.  (Click here to read the Zentangle blog post about that weekend.)
Anticipating a return to my tangling roots has put me in a nostalgic mood.   Nostalgic for simple tangles and strings.

For the last few challenges we have used tangles by Zentangle creators Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas.  Let's stay on that course and tangle away this week with a few more.

We begin with this string ~

IAST #267 String by Adele Bruno, CZT - The basic 'z' Zentangle string

Feel free to rotate the string to your liking.

The tangles we will use include three that were featured at my CZT 10 seminar ~

Crescent Moon
You may find my past post about aura (click here to see) as well as one entitled "Shine on, Shine on Crescent Moon" (click here to view) helpful.

These tangles can be found on Tangle List  as well as TanglePatterns.
