The venerable Treebeard, the guardian of the ancient Fangorn forest, stands tall and wise surrounded by flora and fauna. His iconic words feature prominently on the top and bottom borders:
“The world is changing: I feel it in the water, I feel it in the earth, and I smell it in the air.”
This fabric celebrates the slow passage of time, seasons, and guardianship of nature. The colour palette transitions smoothly from cool green and blue tones, representing the lush, earthy elements of the forest, to soft pinks and dark claret hues.
"Nobody Is On My Side," comes from a profound quote by Treebeard in The Two Towers. His full quote, "I am not altogether on anybody's side, because nobody is altogether on my side, if you understand me: nobody cares for the woods as I care for them, not even Elves nowadays," highlights his deep connection to the natural world and his sense of isolation, even from those who might otherwise be considered allies.

This detailed, illustration shows Treebeard and his tree-giant friends in the forest of Fangorn. Also known as tree-herders, these ancient beings protect and nurture the woods. Treebeard is said by Gandalf to be "the oldest living thing that still walks beneath the Sun upon this Middle-earth."
The design features part of a quote from Treebeard to Galadriel in The Lord of the Rings "For the world is changing: I feel it in the water, I feel it in the earth, and I smell it in the air. I do not think we shall meet again"
The pattern is inspired by woodcuts and the aesthetic art movement style. It is an adaptation of our Fangorn pattern.
