\"bPetricoin_turtleisland1\"<\/a>The big, information laden and in depth technique tutorial in the spring issue is on polymer quilling. Quilling with paper has gotten quite popular and has gone beyond the realm of basic decoration into some truly museum-quality wall pieces. The art intrigued Beth Petricoin,<\/a> and she wrote me last year to query about whether our readers would like to see this done in polymer. She had started working on the technique in the summer of 2013 and was needing that push to perfect it. So, with an enthusiastic \u201cYes!\u201d from me, she worked on it until she streamlined the process and had developed several different approaches in order to provide a great variety of possibilities. The article in the spring 2015 issue includes these with everything from choices of substrate or none at all, closed and open quill work methods, and plenty of tips and tricks to get our readers started on this fun and beautiful technique.<\/p>\n

In this article, we were able to show both simple and very complex pieces using this technique. What we didn\u2019t have room for was the piece that rather started this whole journey for Beth. But, you see it here now. I believe this was her first full-scale attempt with this technique back in 2013, and it’s really quite well done. I love how the sky versus the ocean, both in shades of blue, are delineated by types of forms\u2014round and rolling, accented with bubbles in the ocean while the sky is simple waves and white clouds. Zoom in on the turtle as well to see the whorls in the shell. There\u2019s a lot of detail in this.<\/p>\n

You can read about this first piece along with the Native American Indian story that inspired it on Beth\u2019s blog<\/a>. Take a look through some of her other entries<\/a> and catch the broad range of her work with a little perusal around her Etsy store<\/a>.<\/p>\n
