Circle of Matryoshka Dolls Holding Hands

Coloring guide
Six smiling dolls form a ring with their hands joined, almost like they're dancing around a patch of grass. Each one has a headscarf and a rounded dress with its own pattern, such as big daisy-style flowers or a single tulip, plus scalloped lace trim along the hems. Two of the dolls face away, so only their scarves and backs show. Two butterflies flutter at the top, and small flowers and tufts of grass dot the ground. Big shapes mixed with tiny details make this work for a range of ages. A different bright scarf for each doll, maybe red, turquoise and sunny yellow, repeated in the flower petals, will tie the whole circle together. No sign-up is needed for the free printable.
