Quilled school logo


 A request from my favourite costumer Daphne. Really enjoyed making this one. The thin Tamil letters on the top was a bit difficult I stuck a few paper strips together and shaped them . Most of the work was beehive technique .

Thanks for stopping by.

Quilled portrait - Allini



 



          This portait is made completely from tight coils. My earlier Portrait was that of her brother. 
I have used 5mm for most of the portrait except for the background and neck region for which I used 3mm strips.

Paper sculpting basics



 



     Earlier this month I taught children from class 6th to class 12th the basics of paper sculpting. 
 I found this free image on the internet. This is also my first attempt at paper sculpting . 
      
     I used just the basic colours that came in the assorted pack that I gave the children . I replaced the browns and greys with red or blue.

Wedding Keepsake quilled


     I am back with another wedding keepsake. This time I was particularly asked to include roses. 

The lettering is the most difficult and time consuming part. 

 I have used 3mm strips for the flowers and 5mm for the fringed centres. 

These make excellent customized gifts which will be cherished forever.  Contact me at

Thanks for stopping by, Have a creative day.
