A. Harwell--Arboretum

J.C. Raulston Arboretum at NC State

Cotton fabric with each piece cut from individually designed plastic templates that are positioned as appropriate to the pattern in the cloth; machine pieced and hand quilted; 57 by 57 inches.

"A rainy June walk in the arboretum: down green-walled paths, over stepping stones to a water garden, hopping among the fish, frogs, and toads...past sculptures that evoke a sensual, spiritual freedom to a huge wicker dome entwined by red flowering vines and lorded over by raucous birds. Under your feet is a tiled floor depicting trees with interlaced limbs."
