Mandala Embroidery - 2, Chain stitch family mandala

Hi all

Hope all are doing great and enjoying the weekend.  Earlier this year in January, I have embroidered a mandala out of the family of straight stitches. Today I am happy to share with you the second mandala which I have embroidered using the family of chain stitches.  I have learned the stitches from Sarah's website.  I have used twelve stitches from the chain stitch family.  

In this post I have given the stitch names in the pattern.  I will try to make the tutorial of each stitch in future.  Now onto the mandala.

I have embroidered it in ordinary poplin cotton fabric.
