Celebrate the season by reading the seasonal poems in Pieces: A Year in Poems & Quilts and enjoying the beautiful miniature quilts that illustrate each poem. Anna Grossnickle Hines has written and illustrated two children's books that feature her miniature quilts: Pieces and Winter Lights. She also used quilts to illustrate Whistling, which was written by Elizabeth Partridge.
