Farm Animals and Kaleidoscope

This is one from my A3 sketchbook, highly decorated farm animals, drawn with ink first then painted with watercolours.

An up and coming contest at Spoonflower is entitled kaleidoscope and I was thinking of entering one of these. I prefer the butterflies but does it look like a kaleidoscope pattern?

The original single patterns before making them into repeating patterns.
