Margaret Brewster Willingham, the creative mind at work behind Eye of the
Beholder Quilt Designs, is an international teacher and lecturer, pattern designer
and author. Margaret’s quilts are influenced by the dynamic elements of
movement, color and design she used for over 40 years as a choreographer of
dance as she composes unique quilts full of beauty, elegance, and inspirational
color. For Margaret, quilting is a journey of excellence and a creative act of hope.
Her award-winning quilts and her teaching style invite you into that journey. Her
greatest joy is in passing on skills and growing confidence in quilters new and old,
inspiring us each to listen to our own creative voice and to have the confidence to try
something new. She is most well-known for the innovative (and foolproof!) methods
she’s devised for reverse applique – ‘Trace, Baste, Snip and Stitch’, which takes the mystery
(and hardship) out of reverse applique. Her designs can be completed by either hand and/ or
machine, for those times when you just must have it finished quickly!
At the trunk show, attendees will get a glimpse into the interplay of color, pattern and
design Ms. Willingham uses to create her reverse appliqué patterns by hand and
machine.
