Quilling Classes Jan 2013 - Man Power!

We had two adult beginner quilling classes in January, one conducted in Mandarin and another in English to cater for different needs of students. Surprisingly, this time round I have male students in both classes - which is a great sign!

The first class was held on new year day! Yes, we started quilling right on the first day of 2013! We had 5 students for the class (including a guy) - the number is just nice for the lesson so that I could pay attention to every students.



The fundamentals

Spot the only guy? He is as good as (or even better) than the girls.

The second class was held on a Saturday afternoon, on the 12th. This time we had 4 students, majority being men! To date, I have had 6 male students after conducting six adult classes (8 if you count the 2 boys in my kids fun quilling class!). And among these students, three are crafters who have had previous experience with quilling. So I decided to come up with a new project pattern to suit their need. (If you are interested with the pattern, click HERE)

Who says man doesn't quill?

See? I can quill!
