Jane and Paul Jenkins welcome you.

For thirty years, Jane has been writing books on Quilling. Her books teach a wide range of quilling techniques, and she designs very enjoyable and easy-to-use pattern books for all ages. Whether you are just starting out or are the most advanced of quillers, we hope you will find all the books and patterns you need in our website. You can see our books and DVDs on our 'Learn about Quilling' page.

We were bitten by the Quilling bug back in the early 1980s. Very quickly, Jane was teaching quilling in adult education classes. We soon found that we couldn't buy strips in the weight of paper and variety of colours we needed, so we started to make our own strips. By 1982 we had started a small business, JJ Quilling Design, because people were asking us to send strips and designs to them. We were careful to heed the response of our students (Yorkshire folk do not mince words) and strove to produce papers, designs, books, kits and videos which you might use most effectively and happily to make the most of the craft we love.

We have enjoyed supplying quillers immensely. However, we have passed JJ Quilling Design to Diane and Tris Boden, who now make and supply all the strips and equipment. We are confident that they will continue to offer good quality quilling supplies and knowledgeable assistance in the future.

We can supply you with good quilling books and DVDs, though. Please browse in our Jane Jenkins Quilling Books site. We hope you will find what you need. In 'Learn to Quill', you will see Jane's books for Search Press:"Quilling: Techniques and Inspiration", an excellent, colourful 'textbook' for quillers; and 'Three Dimensional Quilling - Making Characters', where you can learn to make quilled characters, some simple, some more challenging, all a delight to quill, all with step-by-step pictures and instructions.

We're happy to answer your questions on quilling and will continue to run Quilling Guild workshops, as well as Jane's regular courses in venues around our area. We will also still offer to visit with teaching workshops to other groups in the UK, teaching anyone, from absolute beginners, to the most advanced, or groups of mixed quilling prowess. You arrange the room, tables and chairs and people, and we bring the day's quilling experience and lots of fun to your group. Click on 'Workshops' for these.

We were founding members of the Quilling Guild, have served on the committee in several posts, and are honoured to be joint Vice Presidents and Fellows of the Guild. We really recommend joining the Quilling Guild, whether you are experienced or just a beginner. It's an inexpensive way of receiving three colour magazines each year with designs and news from the regions and other countries, letters, chat, diary events, etc. You will be able to contact a Regional Representative, who may organise workshops or a chance to meet other quillers, and there are displays and competitions at the Annual Display of Quilling Work and AGM, held at venues around Britain.

You are welcome to contact us for information or just to tell us or show us what you do enjoy about this most versatile craft.
