Happy New Year 2012




Here is a quilled wreath I created to welcome guests for the new year get together at my new home. I can now use it as home decor too :) I dedicate this to gifted quillers Amna and Claire whose techniques I have used .

Wreath has small pom poms, malasian flowers, quilled roses, flowers with concentric circles and a center flower created with loops.

The hole project started with my urge to quill a butterfly. I had to find a neat place for this and ended up with a flower wreath :)

For the butterfly , quilled each part separately and fixed on the sketch kept under a transparent sheet to obtain the correct measurements for wings and similarity in both wings.
Made my first ever entry to CraftyJC , Kalalayaa .

  2. Dear Geeta I bought felt from Mantri Mall Spar a few months back- saw it twice there but last time I went it was unavailable. It is available in all sorts of colors in Itsy Bitsy Bangalore but it is very expensive in Itsy bitsy
