Ponga tree pattern
I designed this square for the Friends Around The World 3rd Anniversary CAL. It represents a native New Zealand fern tree known as the Ponga fern (Cyathea dealbata).

This square was designed to show a bird’s eye view of a Ponga tree from the top or the view from looking up at the tree from underneath (if you choose a silver or white colour for the fern fronds).
