Zentangles are basically doodling on fabric with thread. They can be any shape or pattern that fills in the surface of a fabric piece. Some people draw them out first and others just FMQ their designs. If you Google it I bet you will find many pictures of some fantastic designs. Some people frame their Zentangles and some incorporate them into different things like quilt, pillows etc.

Any monochromatic color scheme would be striking, maybe using batiks because of their intense colors. I think you would have to be careful not to get too crazy with the pattern and color choices of fabric because it would be easy to confuse the eye with so much going on with the piecing. I would love to see your completed quilt, and think this would be a fun challenge to make.

Wow, I would love to see this in autumn/fall type colors- everything from vibrant red, copper/oranges, peach, yellow like Aspen leaves, to light lime green. Those would be what I would use...I can't wait to see what you do. I love the plan itself. Definately challenging! Good luck!

I think it would look great in shades of grey with occasional pops of color - especially in the center block that has the little black squares in it. Maybe those could be yellow or red. No matter what - the quilt will look great no matter what colorway you decide to use. It's a beautiful pattern.
