MB duotangles

Another duotangle challenge! I quite like these, and this time we are to choose which tangles to use based on our initials. I thought I should use some of my own tangles too, so I used:
M - Morse
B - Boss
That was fun! I was taken with the idea and did another one, this one using:
M - Meer
B - Blake (scroll down)
Unfortunately it looked like a jumble of non-descript shapes, even when I make the background really gray. So I added a bit of color to define the Meer strips. It's a lot better. Both are on white tiles.

    1. Yes, it's kind of a finicky tangle, but a nice effect!

  9. I really love the shimmer in your tangles. The top two tangles are new to me and I must go explore, and I love the touch of color in the second.

  12. Both tiles are fabulous!! I have not seen the two tangles in the top tile either! I must explore also! And the coloring in the 2nd is really nice. Even the gray in the background! Great work! :0) Share humanity

  13. I like them both. The first has so much depth to it. I would not have guessed that it was on a white tile. I like the subtle color you used with the second. It is not central but adds so much. Wise choice on your part to use it.
