Donkeys, mother and foal pattern

Donkeys – Mother & Foal

Donkeys have always held a special place in my heart. When I lived in Belgium, I was lucky enough to live next to a field of donkeys. Every time I stepped into the garden, they would greet me with their own quirky serenade. Their charm and character never failed to make me smile, so I just had to create a pattern to capture their spirit!
