Zentangle's new tangle OoF

Rick and Maria have presented another wonderful new tangle, OoF. You can see how it's done in the Zentangle newsletter here. I had a look at it, loved it, then had other things to do. When I got around to trying it I no longer had the computer screen in front of me, and made a few attempts in my sketchbook. All were quite unsuccessful as OoFs, but I did come up with quite a number of interesting other tangles!!! Here's my sketchbook page:

So I consulted the Zentangle newsletter and had a better look at OoF. I realized that if I oriented the little squares as diamonds it would work . Then I was away. Here's my first tile, with OoF in the top left and bottom right. I had trouble always getting the arcs to connect to the correct side of the little square, and botched a few by overshooting. That's the inspiration for the curvy fills in the lower right: trying to incorporate a few stray lines. I quite like it!

Tangles: OOF, Crescent Moon, Hollibaugh, Seljuk and unidentified

Here's tile number two. There are two variations on OoF in the "pendant".

Tangles: OOF, Beadlines, Hibred, Lotus Pods
