This pattern is a collaboration piece for XStitch the Rainbow - Beneath the Waves. After seeing the lovely color palette for this year, I immediately thought of a clown fish in an anemone. For the design of the anemone, I wanted to create a border sampler feel. I stitched my little clown fish on a purple linen, but you can take inspiration from the many other designs in this collaboration for your fabric choice!
