About
the Author
Margaret
Docherty started quilting in the late 1980s and, despite having won many
major quilting awards on both sides of the Atlantic, still looks on herself
as an amateur quilter. The "night" time hobby of quilting is
a reward after the rigors of her day job as a pediatrician. An experienced
teacher of young doctors and medical students, Margaret finds teaching
quilters to be much more fun, although it has to be on the weekends or
during annual leave.
She
has written two books for American Quilter's Society, Little
Brown Bird Patterns and Birds 'n' Roses.
Over three decades, Margaret and her husband have tended three quarters
of an acre of English Country Garden and claim to feed every wild bird
in the county. It is literally possible for her to find inspiration for
a Garden Quilt in her own backyard.
Quilting and medicine are only two of the author's interests. She enjoys
fast cars; clothes, far too many clothes; a houseful of dogs; and the
relief of having grown-up daughters.
