This Paper Quilled Bowl Class with Erin Newman will be in two parts. In the first class, Erin will supply quilling paper, tools, glue bottles, and instructions for making the tight coils. Erin will also have some creative ideas to add whimsy to your design. Students will make some coils in class; however, the majority of the coil production will be done ON YOUR OWN at home before the second class.
The second class is longer, allowing extra time for the final steps. For the second class, students will need to have ALL COILS READY TO BE GLUED ONTO THE BOWL FORM. Once coils are glued onto the bowl, it is finished with PVA coating. *NOTE: THIS IS A 2-DAY CLASS, please make sure you can attend both.
