(Wikipedia)

The Blue Period (Spanish: Período Azul) is a term used to define the works produced by Spanish painter Pablo Picasso between 1901 and 1904 when he painted essentially monochromatic paintings in shades of blue and blue-green, only occasionally warmed by other colors. These somber works, inspired by Spain and painted in Barcelona and Paris, are now some of his most popular works, although he had difficulty selling them at the time.

My hand made carpet/wall hanging reminded me of Picasso's painting. Although not in blue I thought Photoshop could do the trick. Well I tried....
I deleted the original photo. Here it is again.

I didn't realise this was a carpet! How very clever! It could also be someone attempting a yoga pose while scratching her back!

@maggiemae This carpet is very old. Made it in the days of tapestry. You made it on the same canvas. You had a hook tying the pieces of wool on the canvas. It looked like a carpet at the end.

Blue can also be understood as sad. the figure all balled up in a self protective posture. Very well done.

Very creative and I can understand the picture. Normally Picasso paintings have no meaning for me.
