An example of a Twinchie.

Inchies are one inch by one inch squares of paper (or fiber) that contain small art, collaged or hand-drawn.

Betwinchies are the same concept as an inchie only it is a 1 1/2 inch square.

Twinchies — are the same concept as an inchie only it is 2 inches squared.

Rinchies — are the same concept as an inchie only it is a circle of one inch diameter. A 1 inch circle punch works well.

Rolo (Art) — altering, redecorating a Rolodex card that fits on a flat file type Rolodex or the circular one. (Find a used one at a consignment shop, yard sale, refill cards are available — new ones can be found at office supplie stores or WalMart).

Thank you nanners! Really beautiful!

I'd be up for doing twinchies! I didn't realize they could be done as something other than a zentangle. Thanks for the examples!

Twinchies, Inchies and Betwinchies, OH MY!
 

It's time for another project my friends!

You can choose from the following:

Inchies are one inch by one inch squares of paper (or fiber) that contain small art, collaged or hand-drawn.

Betwinchies are the same concept as an inchie only it is a 1 1/2 inch square.

Twinchies are the same concept as an inchie only it is 2 inches squared.

Parameters:

*The theme can be Halloween, Fall, or anything else of your choosing.
*Please make them relatively flat, like no thicker than a puffy sticker.
*Send $10 to wrangler with your project.
*If you choose to use any kind of glitter, it must be contained (such as in a baggie).
*On the back of each piece please add: Project name, wrangler, artist and who it's for.

Sign up will be Today through Friday, 9-8-23.
Due date is 10-06-2023, and to me by 10-13-2023 or you will go on the hold list for 4? months.

I will mail out by 10-18-2023.

If this ruling with 4 months for people on the hold list is not acceptable, please let me know and what changes need to be made.
"The rule is if one of our projects is received by the wrangler more than seven days after the due date, or one of us drops out of a project for whatever reason, that person is welcome to continue posting but is not allowed to sign up for a group project again until four months from the latest date that the project was supposed to be due. No exceptions. This rule applies to participants and to wranglers. Wranglers must mail out projects within one week of the latest date that the projects were supposed to be due. In addition to waiting four months before being able to join a penpal project, the person who has not met the latest deadline must post directly on the penpal thread within a week of missing the latest deadline stating that they have not adhered to the deadline (reason is welcome to be included or does not have to be) and, most importantly, the date on which they will be able to return to participating in the penpal projects. They must scroll back and add themselves to the bottom of the list of any other participants who have not met the late date for any project for 2023. If that is not done, then the member is welcome to participate in the thread with "thanks" and reps and thread chat but not to participate in any future projects for 2023. The reason for this is personal responsibility, so that we have a running record right on the thread that is easy to refer back to when needed. And for the purposes of clarification, if someone drops out before the deadline to sign up has been closed then they are not excluded from future projects because they are still following the rules.

Example: Bitsy misses the late date for a project. Within a week of that late date she must scroll down and find the most recent list of people who have missed the late date in 2023 and copy that list to a new post and add herself. Bitsy's post would look something like this:

'Sorry, I had the bird flu and missed the late date of 2/21/23. I can start participating in new projects on 8/21/23. I have added myself to the list below:

1. Tony (missed the late date of 1/28/23, able to participate 5/28/23)
2. Bitsy (missed the late date of 2/21/23, able to participate 6/21/23)

This rule must be posted in its entirety at the bottom of all new projects that are being wrangled so that members can thoughtfully consider whether we wish to commit to a new project."

Hi Everyone, I think we need to settle the question of how long someone must be on the "artist on hold" list before we go any farther, definitely before we get to the sign-up deadline this Friday, 9/8/23. I vote for 4 months. Nanners has used 4 months. As I recall, clay voted for 6 months. What do the rest of you say?


If we do keep it as 4 months, "8/21/23" in the above paragraph needs to be changed to "6/21/23".

It's time for another project my friends!

I haven't been on the site in a couple of weeks and look what I missed. :seeingstars:

We're all artistic in our own ways and artist types are enthusiastic about our craft. When someone doesn't come through for us and we came through for them, it's personal.

4 months for each artist in the waiting room, done. Majority rules. Everyone starts fresh now, done. I received nanner's piece, so good!

Have I missed anything? Oh, Georgia! You put whatevah you want on those teeny tiny bits of paper/canvas/etc.

Here are some more ideas:
