Quilling !

Right, I am just trying out some quilling (thanks to Miku5s freebie!!)

Its very fiddly - hopefully I'll have some results to post later !

Very tricky though to get things the right size!

I have a quilling board...somewhere...but never used it!Blush

The knack of getting the right sizes comes in time. Try to do all your loops a size at a time, and then just compare. never had nor used a quilling board myself but have been doing it since I was 10.

The quilling kits from canny crafts are good and do have a size guide in the booklet. i'd recommend those.

have fun!!

OK - glue not yet dry & I will probably add words to make it a Mothers Day card

Yes - I think it looks good when you get it just right, think I need some more practice !

What do you do with a quilling board, if its not a silly question ??

right
that's it

It has been playing on my mind for a while that you Crafty people are in actual fact speaking in a barely disguised code about exotic erotic practices and the name of this thread has just confirmed my worst fears.

Busted!
