Have you ever wondered how quilt pattern designers come up with their ideas? How they combine shapes, colors, and layouts to create stunning designs?  In this inspiring lecture, young pattern designer Angela Davis shares how she approaches creativity and design when developing her whimsical patchwork patterns. Known for her fruit and animal-inspired designs, Angela transforms fabric pieces into playful patchwork rather than traditional quilts. Beginning her sewing journey at just eight years old and designing her first patterns as a teenager, Angela transforms inspiration into vibrant quilts and smaller sewing projects such as pillows, pincushions, tote bags, and table runners. In this lecture, you will learn how to start thinking like a designer, from the first spark of inspiration to bringing playful images to life in patchwork. Whether you follow patterns or dream of designing your own quilts, this lecture will give you tools to make your projects more creative and uniquely yours.
