Jane Jenkins'
QUILLING MPEG 4 Video "LOCKING TWEEZER LETTERS"
What style there is in a beautifully written greeting in calligraphy. Jane shows how equally beautiful letters and numbers can be quilled in paper.
Jane has broken each letter part down into one of four basic shapes. She shows how these can be used to make all letters,
upper and lower case, and numbers, too.
The result is stunning and Jane's instructions can be followed to make all kinds of words for a special occasion or just for fun,
in a variety of paper widths for such as cards, or to stand freely.

You can make artistic creations, too, just as calligraphers do.

Play this on your PC or laptop or plug into a TV.

Locking Tweezer Letters MPEG 4 Video - £7.50

"Pixie-hood Looping"

A long time ago, a friend gave Jane a photo of an antique religious boxed quilling. It was because this shows an unusual shape
for antique paper filigree work - Fringed Flowers - that Jane looked hard at it recently. Then she noticed something else,
quite different from what you expect in a quilling of the time. She saw what she calls 'Pixie-hoods' (because they look like that).
We have seen these shapes elsewhere, made from wood shavings (see 'Eighteen Quilled Roses', above) but not, before, in an antique.

Jane immersed herself in experimenting with these Pixie-hoods and was quiet for a long, long time.
She was developing all the Pixie-hood techniques you can find in this book, which shows you how to make them all.
Some are simple loops, becoming more complex as you read on.

They're great fun for all quillers and are certainly something different and very attractive for your quilling.

£3.60

 

 



TOP Jane Jenkins' "QUILLED TEDDY BEARS" NEXT

There's no getting away from it when it comes to 'cute'; Teddy Bears are right up there at the top.

All the techniques you need to make these teddies are described here.

Jane's always wanted to design free-standing teddies, and now she's delighted to show you how to make them.
These lovable, 'fluffy' bears are Pom-pom-tastic!

 

£4.50

 

 



TOP Jane Jenkins' "FRINGED FLOWER HYBRIDS" NEXT

Twenty-seven or more Fringed Flower techniques, bringing you right up-to-date to the present time!

We were asked so many questions after quillers saw Fringed Flowers in Jane's 'Quilling Techniques and Inspiration'
so she wrote this book as a response. This beautiful colour book explores the many fringing variations,
and has patterns and pictures so that you have all the information you need.

This gives you the low down on how to make these stunning shapes.

£4.50

£3.60





TOP Jane Jenkins' "QUILLINGS - SWEET & SIMPLE" NEXT

If you have seen Jane’s book (published by Search Press), ‘Quilling – Techniques and Inspirations’, above,
it’s written with the more experienced quiller in mind, so you will meet some more challenging projects.
Now, here is a complete contrast. ‘Quillings – Sweet & Simple’ is just that.

Here are sixteen beautiful designs for cards which can be made relatively quickly but look special enough
for anyone to be delighted to receive one. The colour pictures and clear designs make it simple to follow
and you can easily learn all the techniques required.

If you are new to quilling, or are making lots of cards and time is pressing, this book is for you.

£3.60

 

 



TOP Jane Jenkins' "QUILLING PAPER SPREUERS" NEXT

Jane has developed this traditional Swiss straw-work technique to make beautiful cards with paper quilling strips.
There is a baker’s dozen of designs. It's not truly 'Quilling' but it's absorbing and a pleasure to do
as part of a quilled design or on its own, as our Spreuer card pictures show.

Just read and follow the instructions - no experience needed. You loop paper strips back and forth around the prongs of an onion holder
(available and inexpensive from JJ Quilling Design), following the step-by-step instructions. The result is beautiful.



£3.60

 



TOP Jane Jenkins' "SHINY CHRISTMAS SPREUERS" NEXT

Jane’s 'Quilling Paper Spreuers' has been so popular, using Two-tone strips to great effect (see above).
Now, here is a colourful book of shiny Christmas card Spreuer designs.

See how striking shiny strips are in Spreuer pictures, or just use the strips of your choice for different effects.

The instructions are easy to follow, with no previous experience needed. We do recommend using extra strong PVA glue for shiny strips,
and you will need an onion holder or pet comb as well as quilling strips.

£2.70

 



TOP Jane Jenkins' "15 QUILLED TRAY-MAKES" NEXT

These are amusing quilled creatures based on card trays.

One of the joys of building your quilling around a tray is that you have an area ready for decoration.

Having followed the instructions to make a tray, you can choose 15 cute creatures of the air, land and sea to quill, each with clear instructions.
You learn all the quilling techniques you need for these delightful Tray-Makes.

£2.70

 



TOP Jane Jenkins' "3D QUILLED CARDS FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS" NEXT

Quilled cards are interesting enough but, with the added dimension of depth, they can be more special.
These cards are meant for special occasions, when that extra dimension can make the person receiving the card
feel that your friendship with them isn’t flat – it has depth!

Making the cards is described clearly and it is not difficult to impress your friends, celebrating such as their Wedding,
Anniversary, their New Baby, ‘Bon Voyage’, Valentine’s Day, Easter, Christmas, just ‘cos they deserve it, etc.

£3.05

 

 



TOP Jane Jenkins' "BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL" NEXT

Brighten up your life, and your friends' with these colourful, bright and beautiful designs.
Along with the Butterfly, Fish, Parrot and Clown, which look great quilled with Fluorescent papers,
try the tree Bauble, Flower, Mandala and Candle, possibly with Two-tone strips and some papers with a bright Metallic Edge,
to create a stunning effect. Of course, you could use any bright papers you choose.

The techniques you use are all described. You can mostly use just your fingers
but a foam Quilling Board can help with planning and making looped shapes.

£2.45

 

 



TOP Jane Jenkins' "SIX BRITISH GARDEN BIRDS" NEXT

This book helps you quill six beautiful British garden birds - Blue Tit, Chaffinch, Yellowhammer, Greenfinch, Goldfinch and Robin.
We notice these birds at certain times of the year and feed them to enjoy their glorious colours and birdsong.

These patterns suggest the colours that will create the most natural quillings of our favourite birds.
All techniques are well described and are not as challenging as the final picture suggests.



£2.70

 

 



TOP Jane Jenkins' "BRITISH WILD FLOWERS" NEXT

There are no fewer than thirteen beautiful wild flowers to make, such as you might see growing in the margins of fields,
in the hedgerows and in the corners of gardens, in the wild area for birds and butterflies to visit.

Some we may remember from Grandparents' gardens - Forget-Me-Nots, Speedwell.
Some we played amongst as a child - Daisies, Buttercups - all have been with us for centuries.
Campion, Herb Robert, Nightshade and Heartsease (so loved in Elizabethan times that they are mentioned by the Bard himself)
are there, with clear patterns and techniques explained.

£2.45
