Fiber Artist, Margaret Hobbs
Category: Thing Historic Buildings & Houses
Margaret graduated from Thomas University and Thomas Tech with an Associate’s degree in physical therapy and has been a physical therapy assistant since 1998. She has been married to her husband for 46 years. They have three children and 10 grandchildren (3 in Heaven). Margaret started quilting in her early 20s when her mama gave her grandma’s quilting squares. She is now almost 64 years old and has lost count of just how many quilts she’s made, but she has made at least one quilt for each child and grandchild. Margaret did not start photographing her quilts until just a few years ago, so she has very few photos of them. However, the act of making them is what she enjoys most. Margaret grew up in Thomasville and has lived here her entire life. She loves the small- town feel of our community, even though it continues to grow. Her quilt will focus on her eight favorite historic structures, which play an essential role to her connection to Thomasville.
