Island Park
Bryson Street at Ramseur
Bryson City, NC 28713
Island Park is located across a foot bridge just two blocks off Everett Street in downtown Bryson City. It’s a quiet area to walk or have a picnic, or go fishing. Kayakers often practice slalom moves in the “Devil’s Dip” rapid. The donor of this quilt block has a special love for her very own, much loved double wedding ring quilt. Her desire is to display this pattern in a colorful way that celebrates the woodlands and the flowers gracing the grounds of Island Park during the summer months. The primary colored sections of the quilt will also provide interest in the winter months becoming the “blooming flowers” during those cold, gray days until spring arrives again. It also provides a fun optical illusion as the flowers morph into the quilt pattern the closer you get.
