Using a continuous line while drawing tangles is similar to the process of stitching on a sewing machine.
In this video CZT® Suzanne McNeill demonstrates how she uses this style of drawing to achieve great results on a canvas tote bag.
Suzanne says she likes to use the Micron Pens for smooth fabric, but for heavier fabric such as the canvas bag she likes the Pentel Gel Roller for Fabric.
The Pentel Gel pens contain permanent, acid-free and water-proof gel ink for fabric, and according to Pentel the water-based ink “withstands repeated washings”. Sandy Bartholomew also recommends these for tangling on fabric.

Awesome inspiration, Suzanne! Thank you so much for sharing, and thank you Linda for posting the link!

How wonderful, all those little drawings!! Very inspiring.Thank you for sharing them.
Linda, this sound like a great topic, but for some reason I don’t see a video… I tried both Internet Explorer and Chrome.
Thanks for the heads up Anthony. Fixed the old code, it should be fine now. Enjoy! 🙂
