BiographyEarly lifeMarilyn J. Leavitt was born August 1, 1946 in Youngstown, Ohio,[2] where she attended Ursuline High School.[3] CareerHer professional design career began in the 1960s, working as an advertising and fashion illustrator for Strouss and Hartzell, Rose and Sons.[4] Imblum began publishing embroidery designs around 1986, when she showed her original design "The Quilting", showing an Amish quilting bee, to the owner of a local needlework shop who told her that if she graphed the design the shop would sell it.[4] The first 25 copies sold almost immediately. Within a decade, her Victorian angel designs were considered among the most popular cross-stitch designs available.[5] In 2000, she publicly stated her opposition to the unlicensed sharing of needlework patterns on the Internet.[6] Personal lifeShe was married three times and had six children.[2] She had multiple sclerosis but did not widely publicize the fact.[4] She died on August 14, 2012 in Newark, New York, aged 66.[2] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Marilyn Levitt-Imblum Has Died|url=http://chillyhollownp.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/breaking-news-marilyn-levitt-imblum-has.html|work=The Chilly Hollow Needlepoint Adventure|accessdate=August 16, 2012}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite news|title=Marilyn L.
