I totally agree with Mathteacher - that was my first response. Quilt straight lines following the 'grass' to emphasize the texture and shape of grass. I'd quilt around the leaves and up and down the tree trunk (try to put several knot holes in it, too, again for texture). QuiltnNan had a great idea to quilt curls and waves in the mane and tail -- I'd SID for the rest of the lion. Just for fun, maybe quilt "ROAR!", "King of the Jungle" and even "Meow" (to see if anyone notices!!) in the border? Have fun with it - its a really fun quilt! Great job.
