Back Cover Information

When it comes to quilts, these sisters take bright, bold and beautiful to a whole new level! The duo behind Me and My Sister Designs presents their first book of patterns—simple, lively and one of a kind.

  • Choose from nine easy-to-stitch patterns featuring fun fabric motifs, including flowers and cats.
  • Create quilts with strip sets, folded corners, and more fast piecing techniques.
  • Pair cheerful colors with new twists on classic blocks.

Authors Barbara Groves and Mary JacobsonAbout the Authors

Yes, they really are sisters! Barbara Groves and Mary Jacobson of Me and My Sister Designs have shared a love of fabric, sewing and quilting for almost as long as they have been sisters. They are involved in almost every aspect of quiltmaking.

Their belief in fast, fun and easy designs can be seen in the quilts created for their pattern company, in their many books and in their fabric designs for Moda.

Barb and Mary both live in Phoenix, Arizona, with their families. They see each other almost every day.
