Maybe it's a giant piece of confetti??

I think it's a birthday party placemat, or a colorful ticket to a Mardi Gras ball!

It made me think of Mardi Gras too, but I thought that was only because I just bought a King Cake!

looks like a detail to a paisley pattern to me.

Looks like a crocheted afghan.

It is the crumpled piece of Doritoes wrapper left on the floor by either the kids or the dog-they both deny it!

It looks like a hot pad to me.

It looks like a design that I had on my pants back in the 60's when I was listening to the Beatles. I remember my parents hating those pants!

It's a disguised pattern.

The color logic to start is really hard here! Well, it was for me. So I can see people using edge logic.

But it was fun to hunt down a line/color logic way.

Blue borders to 39% with minimal color logic

R3C9-10 green since R3C6 and R3C13 can't be green
R5C9-10 blue since R5C6 and R5C13 can't be blue

R7C10 must be a dot, and if R7C9 is blue, then R6C9 is red,a contradiction. So it is a dot too.

Now R9C4 can't be green, so R9C2 is green. The helper doesn't note the R8C11 can't be blue, but once you do, the helper solves the puzzle.
