Audrey Esarey - exploration is key to developing your own style

Send a textAudrey Esarey is an artist - no doubt about it! Her quilts are graphic, highly original, layered in interest and details, and, well....just a feast for the eyes.Audrey and I chat about her journey from her first quilt class to here - how that involved exploration, and trying out new skills, and even a complete hiatus for some years. But all those things served to clarify and refine her esthetic. And who knows what other new things may be over the horizon? For now, hand-dyed fabric, radial designs, and intricate line quilting are hallmarks of Audrey's style. It's fascinating to peak behind the scenes on some of these skills as she's developed them.Audrey can be found in these places:Instagram:  for the eye candy, and lots of process detailsWebsite: classes available to guilds and via ZoomWant to try free motion quilting but don't know where to start?
