Crochet Center
With green yarn:

Rnd 2: Work groups of stitches around the center to create the first layer of pointed petals.
Rnd 3: Continue around the motif, working increases where needed to expand the shape.
Join with a sl st.
FO and weave in the end.
Raised White Flower
With ivory yarn:
Attach yarn near the center of the green motif.
Work several elongated stitches into each flower section to create raised, rounded petals.
Repeat around the center to form a full layered flower.
Keep the petals slightly raised so they stand out from the green background.
FO and weave in the ends.
Green Openwork
Continue around the flower using green yarn.
Work chain spaces and groups of stitches to create the open sections between the petals.
Repeat the pattern around the motif.
Keep the spaces evenly distributed.
Square Shape
Continue expanding the motif until the circular floral design develops four clear corners.
Work additional stitches into each corner to create the square shape.
Continue around the motif until it reaches the desired size.
Ivory Border
Attach ivory yarn around the outer edge.
Work sc evenly around the square.
At each corner, add extra stitches so the motif stays flat.
Finish with a decorative scalloped edge using small groups of stitches.
FO and weave in the ends.
Finishing
Carefully weave in all loose yarn ends.
Gently block the motif so the four corners are defined and the flower lies neatly in the center.
Shape the raised white petals by hand.
Lightly straighten the ivory scalloped border.
The finished piece can be used as a decorative crochet square, coaster, pillow motif, blanket square, or combined with additional motifs for a larger project.
