TANGLE NAME: Ambady

The name 'Ambady' was suggested by my niece. I was in my parents-in-law's house, when I saw a prospective idea for a Tangle. I deconstructed it immediately. I asked my niece to suggest a name. She immediately told me 'Ambady'. It is the name of my in-law's house. Ambady means Lord Krishna's Childhood Place.
'Ambady' has resemblance to Tangle Batumber : Batumber  and Tangle Jalousie : Jalousie


This is the deconstructed tangle :



'Ambady' mostly works well as a border tangle.
Here is my take on it :


On a tan tile:



This is the one I did recently for MonsoonZentagleIndia2021. It is full of Ambady flowers (Centre flower and in the Corner flowers). In between the bigger and the smaller circle, I've given traditional 'Ambady-s'.

      I used regular charcoal pens (both white and black) . I used the white first and then slightly dabbed the black for the Nzeppel. For the 'Ambady', I used the reverse. Thank you so much for using my tangle for Delhi guys! 😊😍

Seven Steps

A new tangle named 'Seven Steps' is deconstructed here. You start with a '7' and at the tail end of it again '7' and so on. The "steps" are the completed by just aura-ing the 7s multiple times. It reminds of of the tangle Betweed Steps of Deconstruction : This is another tile with an escalator going 'Up' and 'Down' :-) Notice the change in direction by shading.  Hope you enjoy Seven Steps.

L's And Auras

L'sAndAuras came to me when I was trying various versions of Tangle L's  by Cindy Knapp. I made an oopsie, and voila I discovered a new tangle.  The tangle des-construction is given below:                       This is a 3.5 inches tile. I've drawn a mono tangle of Variation1 of  L's And Auras. This diamond shaped tangle has L's and Auras and includes the Basic Version of L's and Auras surrounded by Jonqal and a fragment. L's and Auras can be used as a fragment as well. The left hand side is the Fragment, and the right hand side is the fragment done multiple times. Please tag me when you use tangle L's and Auras.

Tangle Name: WINGED TROPHY

Why do I always discover a tangle pattern from bedcovers? Yes, this tangle is also discovered from a bed cover!  This is my inspiration for deconstructing 'Winged Trophy' from a bedcover. Inspiration for Winged Trophy The story of this discovery is very interesting. I was reading a book called 'Becoming' by Michelle Obama, lying on a bed at my in-law's place at night. I noticed this on the bedcover. I started reading the book again. Somehow, this pattern wasn't going out of my mind. I realised that this could be a Zentangle® pattern (😴😴😴😴😴). I immediately stopped reading, got up, found a pen and a rough paper, drew the pattern a few times, and voila, a tangle began to emerge. I was going to name it 'Becoming', as I was reading exactly that book when I discovered the pattern. But Sonam Gupta, a Certified Zentangle Teacher, suggested this name 'Winged Trophy'. It appears like a trophy having wings. I really loved the name. Little did I know th...
