“To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.” – Joseph Chilton Pearce

Life and quilting have much in common.  We are shaped by our pasts, but not limited by them.  When we find a creative expression, like quilting, we have the opportunity to take what we have and create something of beauty out of it.  Necessity is still the mother of invention, and that is so very true in the quilting life of Margaret Willingham, the founder and creative force behind Eye of the Beholder Quilt Designs. Come hear about Ms. Willingham’s creative journey while getting to know her quilts.

 At all trunk shows attendees will get a glimpse into the interplay of color, pattern and design Ms. Willingham uses. Gain an understanding of the techniques she employs, Trace, Baste, Snip & Stitch and Trace, Snip, Iron & Stitch, to create her reverse appliqué patterns by hand and machine.  Be encouraged to trust your creative instincts as you quilt, adding a touch of elegance to your life.
