Tri-color circle-in-a-square motifs, with lots of textural interest between the central medallions, puff stitches, concentric rows, and scalloped border.

Joining of motifs also provides an opportunity to add texture. Directions are given for interwoven chain-loops, although the pattern is easily adapted to your preferred joining method.

Ratio of colors:
24 oz Main Color (Border, joins, separator rows)
4 oz Color A (center medallions)
8 oz Color B (inner contrast row)
8-9 oz Color C (outer contrast row)
