Tangram

Lotus Sei Shōnagon puzzle

A lotus flower open at the top of a long, bent stem. The lotus rises clean out of muddy water, which has made it a symbol of purity across Asia. It is rated medium because the stem is one piece wide and easy, while the flower is a compact block of petals. Nearly half of the pieces' edges are hidden, just over the line from easy.

Drag the seven Sei Shōnagon pieces onto the shadow until the lotus is filled. Every shape here uses all seven, with no overlaps and nothing hanging over the edge. The pieces have exactly the silhouette's area, so covering the shadow is the whole win condition.
