"Winter to Spring" by Kathy York:

We couldn't tell if the fabric was striped or if it was pieced in these tiny stripes. In any case it was beautiful and textural:

This is "Overcrowded World" by Irene MacWilliam

I'm leaving for Paducah tomorrow! We have quite a drive straight south from Chicago. I can't wait to get away! My mom and I travel well together and have fun. I hope the weather is warm and pleasant. We just can't seem to shake off winter here in Chicago.
