Still doodlin'

This is the third (actually number 3 1/2 if you count the quilt that never quite got finished) in my one and only quilt series. The original quilt  "Namaste", was made in 2006 and donated to my guild's miniature quilt auction in 2007.  A smaller variation, Namaste Redux, was donated to Ami Simms' Alzheimer's Quilt Initiative and purchased at Houston by Joyce Hartley. This one, "Namaste III, Conversations Under a Crescent Moon", uses a single small scrap of Caryl Bryer Fallert's "Gradations" fabric for all the people. The finished quilt measures 14" x 9".

And I doodled on...

I drew a radish. Then a carrot. Then more root vegetables. I pulled some out of the ground, leaving veggie-shaped holes. What happened to these missing root children? I gave my sketch a title, "The Mystery of the Missing Root Children". Then I added a "suspect", a sinister green-eyed red cabbage. Every mystery needs its "detective", here it's a quizzical worm. Can you find him/her? You will need to click on the picture for a larger version.

No, it's NOT a self-portrait...

it started out as a random doodle about two weeks ago. The original doodle was an alien-like creature, with big almond eyes and a pointed chin. I absentmindedly doodled some hair, then more hair, and more, until I had a beehive hairdo. I drew sunglass frames around the eyes, then added a neck and shoulders. I gave her a name, "Honey", then added the bees. She needed to be a quilt. Of course part of the fun was making her out of materials on hand.
