Hi Friends, I know very well that all of you will start laughing once you see this kolam, since it is no where closer to the answer. I created this kolam before Jaya mam gave us the clue saying that 24 saplings represents 24 dots. I couldn't do that and was in a dilemma whether to upload this kolam or not. As this puzzle was dedicated to Rajamma mam, then I decided to upload this kolam, since I didn't want to disappoint Rajamma mam as usual. She feels disappointed if we do not participate in the puzzles given by her. But I'm not that much intelligent to solve those puzzles. Now I uploaded thi kolam in order to show her that I have done some homework but couldn't arrive at the correct answer. The basic logic itself is not correct. As per Jaya mam it has to be a dotted kolam but I have done it as a free hand padi kolam. Let me know your feedback.

When we were young we, sisters while wlaking on the road if we see a nice chikku kolam, we used to take the available bit of paper piece and one will draw the one side and other one will copy the other side of the kolam in a hurry and come home. After that, with the bit and pieces copied we will arrive at the full kolam. I remembered that and created this excercise.
Dear friends ..Whether correct or not I have given a try at this pattern and have a design from the strokes given by Rajamma mam.

Got this design from an old magazine. My Maid/helper girl said she will colour it.She is interested in learning kolam and has good colouring sense.
Just tried to give a face lift to my granite floor with the hlp of adobe photoshop.

Dear friends...here is a kolam done using the puzzle solution given by Jaya mam. Without having any idea whether the basic design is correct or not I have done a design using the same in a paper. J) J) :~ If this is correct then I will give my floor version. :bigsmile:

Here is my interpretation of Jayaji's puzzle. The clue made it much easier.
8-petalled green flower gives the top view of the tress and squares the plots. Hope my answer is correct.
Dot grid:
25 - 5 lines
leave 5 dots, then again 25 - 5 lines
25 - 5 lines
leave 5 dots, then again 25 - 5 lines
top: leave 7 dots, then 8 dots - 5 lines, from RHS 5 dots- 5lines
down: 5 dots- 5 lines, from RHS leave 7 dots, then 8 dots - 5 lines.
Confusing dots then easy with free hand too
