The Zentangle Zodiac
Welcome to the Zentangle Zodiac! Here you will find all twelve signs of the Zodiac done in an intricate zentangle style. Included with each of the main zentangle designs are also files with (1) the name of the sign (designed in an original font) and (2) the astrological symbol of the sign.
Sizes of the designs. The main designs measure 6.25 x 6.25 inches (160 x 160 mm) and can be used with the 6 ¼ x 10 ¼ inch hoop (160 x 260 mm), or the 8 x 8 inch hoop (200 x 200 mm). The names of the signs are for the 5×7 inch hoop (130 x 180 mm), but the size of the embroidery varies according to the length of the name. For example, “Sagittarius” is 6.75 x 3.16 inches (172 x 80 mm) while “Leo” is 3.4 x 3 inches (86 x 75 mm). The astrological symbols are for the 4×4 inch hoop (100 x 100 mm).
A note on colours. The worksheets that you will get with the design files mention possible colours that could be used in stitching these designs out. However PLEASE don’t think that you have to follow this guide. I include it in the worksheets because many people expect it, but the colours that you use must always depend on the colours of your background and appliqué fabric, and you will notice that the stitchouts in the pictures that I provide don’t always correspond with the colours in the worksheets. So – be creative and follow your instinct as to the right colours to use
Price. The price of all three of the designs for each sign is $10. The price for all 12 signs (plus the names of the signs and the symbols of the signs) is $100
