great quilting book for all
By S. Schedlbauer
I was very pleased with “Quilts for My Sister’s House”. It has a wide potpourri of projects, both skill-wise and size-wise. I can’t wait to make up some. It was unquestionably a typical “Thimbleberry” publication–and one of their better ones at that.

A real inspiration of quilting and quilt lovers!
By Carol Baum
Quilts for My Sister’s House is one of my bestloved Thimbleberries books. Lynette Jensen brings about an excitement with color, shape, and simplicity. This book in a literal sense draws the projects in pictures leaving no doubts on assembling the projects. There is a nice potpourri of projects including quilts, tablerunners, pillows, tablecloth, wallhanging, throw, and even a childrens quilt. I’ve been quilting for thirty years and this book even inspires me to undertake a lot of new colors and designs I haven’t seen elsewhere. There are a few challenging projects, but the instructions are clear and easy to understand. I have rather a collection of quilt books. My best description of this book is that the use of color and design are distinguishable and inspire you to develop the quilts or projects. This book likewise includes a very helpful popular instruction page located in the last pages of the book.
