Emily Dyer

This past Saturday I went to the Stone Arch Festival of the Arts in Minneapolis. It was hot, but I loved it. I have gone to so many festivals in Virginia, but moving to a new place means seeing new art and meeting new artists. One of my favorites was ceramic artist Emily Dyer. Her family owns a quilt shop and she has spent time working there and quilting herself. You can see the textile influence in her work. I love the simplicity of it. You can also check out her blog here.

Love her work. My fave is the oval plate with the 2 birds. All the "stitching" makes all her pieces unique.

Yvonne,
I agree, once again I go for the simple designs. Hmmmmm, I'm beginning to see a pattern here.
