Tree Hugger

I decided to send this little piece to the Quilt University on-line show. I made it very quickly and didn't really think too much of it, but it has grown on me. I like the forest creature look of it. The assignment was to make a line scribble and then translate it into fabric somehow. This scribble started out as a picasso-type profile silhouetted against a triangle, which looked like a tree. When I did it in fabric, I kept that idea in mind when choosing a color scheme, although the "tree" shape is now beige. But I still see the face, and I strengthened it by adding the bead for an eye. I've called it Tree Hugger.
