These symmetrical designs feature charming animals and flowers in a mandala-like arrangement. Designed by Kyoko Maruoka of Gera!, the pattern includes three separate charts: a puppy and a poppy, a kitten and a dandlelion, and parrots and carnations. You could frame them in an embroidery hoop trimmed with pom poms for a pretty display. The designs would also look great in a square frame.
