I had to step back and forget about making this design realistic. I got a good representation by scrunching the fabric but it looked like scrunched up fabric. I have now taken the light and shadow of the creases in the trunk and stylised them, concentrating on the line. I used a cotton fabric and stitched in polyester thread using black, mid grey and light grey. I think I could have used a thicker batting to accentuate the different levels although when seen with the eye and not the scanner the differences in the heights of the surface is quite obvious.
