August 2023 Workshop: Exploring Curves with Audrey Esarey

This class begins with lecture and drafting exercises on Audrey’s methods for drafting quilts with complex and irregular curves. We’ll discuss how she assembles quilts from the drawings, and she’ll share the best practices she follows for this process. The class will continue using the Exploring Curves Quilt as practice for sewing complex curves. This quilt is a wall hanging made from one large block that uses curved piecing to create the illusion of transparency from overlapping circles. We’ll discuss building a palette and tips and tricks for stress-free curved piecing. Take the guesswork out of color selection by using one of the published color palettes inside the pattern! The Exploring Curves Quilt finishes at 24 x 24 inches. Drafting Complex Curves Booklet sold separately.
