Hi! I'm Carolyn Edge!
aka The Quilling Edge
Are you a craft hoarder/ hobby collector like me? Yup, I've always been busy creating something and pursuing creative hobbies.
​
But one kept rising to the top for me-- paper quilling! It quickly became my passion and now I love sharing it with others, whether that's creating original artwork, teaching my beginner's course, or sharing videos on social media.
​
​
​
I learned paper quilling from a simple workshop at the Austin Public Library in 2017 and immediately became obsessed. The rest was self-taught, and I found my own style by using unique materials, and techniques to bring a modern spin to this ancient art form.
​
A simple medium of paper can do so much, and I enjoy pushing the boundaries of what's possible by using unconventional paper like maps and sheet music, and finding out where paper will stick, like gluing my art onto wine corks and directly onto walls.
​
​
​
I spent the last few years traveling full-time in an RV! After 28 states in almost three years, we're starting our next chapter on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State.
​
We can't get enough of the beauty in the area, and on any given weekend you can find us hiking up a mountain, exploring a rocky beach, wandering into the forest, paddle boarding, enjoying live music, or enjoying a beverage at a local establishment.
​
Are you in the area and interested in setting up a workshop or other live event? I'm available anywhere in the Olympic Peninsula/ Seattle/ NW Washington area. Please email hello@TheQuillingEdge.com
