Small Momentos for Friends

I have always had somewhat quirky gift choices and thankfully I have always had friends who appreciate them! When I started out quilling, I did not want to go around giving flowers and hearts to folks. So this is what I did.

For a friend who celebrated a birthday recently, I made a cupcake. I chose a cupcake to quill because it is more colourful than a usual cake and you don’t have to make totally symmetric shapes to get to this.

I found an image on the internet and more or less stuck to the way it was done, I improvised on only the colours.

When a friend from the good ol’ days of college bought a new smartphone, I welcomed her to the world of android with this cute little Bug-Droid. Though I’m not a big fan of the name but after all, what’s in a name 🙂

Where would we be without our beloved smartphones.

I’m a superhero fan – let me just admit that! Batman is my favourite superhero but somehow I have not gotten around to making a quilled version of Batman yet. Maybe that should be my next assignment! I like Superman as well and I think I decided to quill Superman was because, after all, red and blue are more vibrant colours than black! But the end result did not look very superhero like. It looked more like a dumb-ish cartoon – who definitely was too big for his cape and probably needed some working out in general. Sorry Superman – maybe I’ll have better luck the next time I try.
