I have been holding back from quilling, thinking I could never do it. Your video is VERY inspiring! And you narrate it with a sense of fun in your voice. I think I just might try it! I'm a new subscriber now!

[@annigancreates6074]

Thank you for your comment, double thank you for subscribing! I encourage you to try quilling! But be forgiving with yourself, and expect to have to do things a few times before you get it right. Although I suspect you might just surprise yourself. 😊 Creating is fun!

[@elainebach394]

I have watched soooo many quilling tutorials that absolutely bored me to tears because of the monotone instructions. But you are not only informative, but funny and REAL. I'm hooked!! And your work is gorgeous! Wish mine was half that good but, i just started. 😊

[@annigancreates6074]

Yes, that's what I like to hear! And the great thing about quilling is that even beginning quilling can look super impressive. It's such a cool craft.

[@MarciaSasser1956]

I've found if I just glue all of my colored strips together, I save time and the possibility of unraveling when I am using multiple colors on a coil. I'm learning so much from your video's! Thank you!

[@annigancreates6074]

I will glue strips together on a larger coil for sure, but for small tight coils I still just do it separately Probably because I don't figure out ahead of time how much length I want, just do it as I go. *Sigh* I am a lazybones.😅

Annigan Creates. I said Beautifully Done! Before you said it ( well before I heard you say it) 😏. Listening to you and watching the time was like a Bonus for me. It was very inspiring to watch and I hope very soon I will be able to try this. I saw before and it Looked so unique and beautiful, that I wanted to try it. But alas the quilt material was so pricey in my country 😢. So now I know that you can cut your own material, I will surely try some day... I know I can do, cause I would do pieces of decorations for my Cards.. You are fantastic and so is your work. Blessings in 2022 ❤🙏.

[@annigancreates6074]

Thank you for sharing such a nice comment! Sounds like you have some experience with paper crafts so I bet you'll be good at quilling. Having the quilling material makes things easier but it isn't necessary. I began quilling by using things I already had. I cut my own strips and used a large sewing needle for a quilling tool. Good luck!

[@carols899]

Your video is fun and informative for the newbie which I am not. Your fringe by hand is impressive, I haven’t the patience, lol. Would love if you included all the letter templates to download. Your awesome, keep the videos coming! ❤️

[@annigancreates6074]

Thanks for the great comment! I feel like my templates are smaller than what most people would want, but it's certainly something to look into. The fringe does seem tedious, although it really only takes a couple minutes. For a flower or two, I can do that. And maybe you could fold the strip in half and then cut, then it wouldn't take as long. I should try that next time!
