Batumber-Day

Today I wanted to try Kelley Kelly´s Batumber, which is the focus-pattern in Square One. When I first tried it in my scetchbook this pattern made me feel happy! I couldn´t wait to try it!  I used string 106 and this pattern carried me away. When I was finished i realized I had made a tangleation! I had left the steps behind and the result was something else than I intended to.  Here it is:

I like the result and this was a real string-thing. It just happened.

Yesterday I published the IAST for this week. I wasn´t to happy about it, so today I gave that intresting string another round. Now with Batumber. This time Batumber is Batumber and nothing else. 

Here with Flip-Flap, Flux and Tipple. This tile might not be so free as the first one, but I am pleased with it. And I guess the string from Adele Bruno will come back in other constellations. It is so inspiring to work with!
