Description:
For this swap each person will use a 8 inch by 8 inch piece of cardstock or similar paper. With a pencil mark down the center each way so there are 4, 4inch squares. Next, in pencil draw a string that will travel through all 4 quadrants at least once. You will tangle one quadrant using permanent inks any way you like then send it on to the next person in the round robin circle so they can work a quadrant. We will do this until our own 8 x8 square is full and comes back giving us a unique group zentangle. This swap idea is a variation of something from www.zentangle.com. They have many people in a group work on the same zentangle. How the Round Robin Circle will work: When the swap closes and partners are set we ignore them. I will tell you who to send to in the Round Robin Circle. I think a week is long enough to complete a quadrant and send on to the next person. so I am guessing at 8-10 weeks to complete the circle. If we need more time I can edit the swap and adjust for it. If we get done early thats fine as well. We will be able to rate each other when done as usual. I will edit the swap description as needed. If we have more than 4 sign up we will do a second group. I know it sounds a bit complicated but its not once you get going. I have done this before. There are 12 players so there are 3 groups of 4. Group A.) Bren sends to Carol, Carol sends to Bucket, Bucket sends to jensquil, jensquil sends to Bren. Group B.) Sherartcee sends to iloveMail, iloveMail sends to 1petta, 1petta sends to CollageCafe04, CollageCafe04 sends to Sherartcee Group C.) wrongtree09 sends to ColorMeHappy, ColorMehappy sends to livngood, livngood sends to Tesscalhoun, Tesscalhoun sends to wrongtree09. Any questions ask below or send me an IM See "Sent Received" in Group Forums.

We have five people. If we don't have enough for 2 groups of 4 I will get creative in how we divide the paper. I will let you know once the sign up date is up and adjust the swap accordingly.

actually yes lets use a 8x8 inch piece of paper. I will edit the swap. I will still have 2 groups of 4, unless another 4 people sign up.

Thanks everyone for signing up for this rather unusual swap.

hugs, Tess

You always come up with such creative swaps!

tesscalhoun 07/ 1/2010 #

and this is a big swap, we are looking at 3 groups of 4 now. This will be very challenging for me. Its a good thing :)

tesscalhoun 07/ 4/2010 #

Can we get one more person to sign up so we can have 3 complete group. If not I will be doing 2.

Bucket 07/ 6/2010 #

Looks like there's 12 now! :)

tesscalhoun 07/ 7/2010 #

yea! I will close the sign up and figure out who sends to who shortly.

tesscalhoun 07/ 7/2010 #

This is a big swap but I think it will be fun. Now everyone get busy. :)

iLoveMail 07/ 9/2010 #

Will you PM us the address we should send to? Or should I contact the person you told me to send to? Also, should I wait til I receive from the person who's sending to me & then send them both at once, or is the idea for them to all travel at once?

Bucket 07/ 9/2010 #

iLoveMail, did you hear something about who you send to? I haven't heard anything...

tesscalhoun 07/13/2010 #

tesscalhoun 07/13/2010 #

iLoveMail 07/13/2010 #

Oh, I've got it now! Just click on "see the partners you sent to" & everyone is listed there.

bren 07/15/2010 #

I've sent mine. I won't click "SENT" until the last one and hopefully it won't make me a "late swapper".

tesscalhoun 07/15/2010 #

Yes you have got the idea. I sent mine 7/14. I have started a thread in our group forum for "Sent and Received" please post when you have sent and received the RR zentangles.

tesscalhoun 09/23/2010 #

I need to hear from everyone on where they are with the RR.

tesscalhoun 09/27/2010 #

I have extended the due date as I want everyone to succeed in this swap.
