Winter Lights: Anna Grossnickle Hines

I love quilts, so I got a big kick out of Anna Grossnickle Hines' quilt-illustrated poetry books. She is a persistent and patient woman -- two of the quilts in Winter Lights took 400 hours (each) to make! My hat is off to you, Anna. They are gorgeous.

Starcatcher

Overnight
an icicle grew,
catching the stars
above my window.
Now
in the sunlight
         it
            sets
                  them
                        free.
