Dogwood

January 24, 2012 By Ann

Dogwooda

Dogwood (2012,  52 x 35)
This quilt celebrates the glorious wild flowering dogwood trees that bloom each spring throughout Virginia.  The tree’s actual flowers are the small yellow-green clusters.  What appear to be large showy white petals are actually specialized leaves called bracts that help attract pollinating insects to each yellow-green petal clump.  The dark purple fold on the edge of each bract is a charming surprise among the mass of blooms.    SOLD
