What is this blog?

This blog is about my crafts as I'm sure it's obvious, but rather specifically I post about my quilling. I suppose I didn't include quilling in the title simply because that would limit what I could put in this blog. In other words, 99% of this is in fact quilling.

There ARE periods where I don't post anything for a long time, but that doesn't mean I'm done with quilling! I'll post again. Eventually.

Easter Lady (my next holiday lady!)

I started making the body of my Easter Lady over a month ago and put her on hold, and I finished her today!  Naturally, I gave her dress patel colors.  I thought it would be fun this time to put her hair in a bun!  And, being me, I had to give her those face framing layers!  The ovals on her dress are supposed to be eggs, and the other thing a basket obviously!  On the back of her dress I added  a bunny (its back).  For a finished touch, I added a flower to her hair!

  7. Thanks everyone!

    @teddy bear princess: Wow, that's great! I never meet anyone my age that loves to do paper crafts, it's nice to meet you! I'll check out your blogs.

    The hair is made by cutting a regular 3 mm wide strip into thirds, and by the end you don't cut it all off. I always twirl it around a tooth pick to give it some waves. And my signature is to add the side bangs, it's the same thing excpet glued differently and smaller, obviously. Making the bun specifically is...improvising.
