Fall in love with Paper Quilling


first quilled valentine's gift (2008)

It's weird.. i don't like craft or art during my school time, felt so sad whenever i got assignment related to  those two things, but everything change since I joined in the Parahyangan Catholic University, I like to cut n gluing things (scrapbook-ing).  In the early 2008, i bought a book about 3D quilling (Making 3D fairy doll with paper quilling by Indira)...then I started to googling about it, joined in a group that thought me a lot about quilling, (http://www.quillers@yahoogroups.com); then I try to make some project refer to that sources...and now, I'm crazy about it.. ...  
I already tried to make many quilled things...such as cards, boxes, cross, eggs and framed flowers.  To enrich my knowledge and inspirations, I bought a book, 'The Art of Paper Quilling', which is written by Claire Sun-Ok Choi, and also I took a class about paper quilling at craftmania (2 meetings class).

Aneh ya..waktu sekolah dulu, paling sebel sama yang namanya mata pelajaran prakarya...bisa nangis bombay kalo udah kebagian tugas, tapi sejak kuliah jadi tergila-gila sama pekerjaan tangan...gunting menggunting, tempel menempel...seru aja rasanya.  sampe di awal 2008 kemarin kenalan sama yang namanya paper quilling dari 1 buku berjudul 'Membuat boneka peri 3D dengan paper quilling' (by Indira)...terus jadi penasaran browsing di inet...dan akhirnya bergabung di milis ttg quilling (http://www.quillers@yahoogroups.com)...dan sekarang jadi tergila-gila deh...nyoba bikin segala macem, kartu, box lengkap dengan hiasannya, sampe ke salib, telur dan rangkaian bunga (framed).  Saking penasarannya, berlanjut deh cari-cari idenya...sampe bela-belain beli buku import di Kinokuniya (The Art of Paper Quilling by Claire Sun-Ok Choi) dan ikutan kursus (2x pertemuan) ttg paper quilling di Craftmania
