Quilling Workshop

I remembered to take photos! Many of them didn't turn out as I was in too much of a hurry but one of the ladies kindly shared her pics which were much better.

Joanne's card

Jeanne's card

Eileen's card

Carrie's card

Carolyn's card

Eleanor's card
Unfortunately, we didn't get a good photo of Vicki's card and many of them were not finished as we were running out of time and I wanted everyone to have a chance to work on another project.

There were 8 participants which makes for a nice sized class, giving me time to check with and help everyone as needed. I supplied all of the materials and had a number of samples to use as guides. Here are more pics:

Carrie working on her flower

Eileen working on her flower

Carol, Joanne and Jeanne

Carolyn working on her flower

Eleanor working on her flower
I should have planned a longer workshop as everyone had to take their second projects home to finish. Fortunately, most of the participants are Art Club members so getting things back won't be a problem. Everyone seemed to have a good time and most were very happy with what they created so I guess the workshop was a success.

Now I have to get to work figuring out what to take for my table at -
This is a new venture for Creston and my first time as a vendor with them. Let's hope that the day is worthwhile because it has been a slow winter with sales.

I will let you know and, hopefully, have photos lol!

      They are lovely aren't they? We got off to a rocky start but once they figured out how to move the fingers things went well. Thanks for commenting Win.

      Hi Caz, thanks for commenting. There are so many youtube videos to learn from that when you have time you will be able to try it easily. Everyone had a great time and I agree, their cards were fab!

      Thanks Nelvia, we weren't concentrating all the time - had some laughs too. I was really pleased with their creations and some of them are already asking for another class so I guess I done good.
