Step 2: Fold some simple outlines for your quilled feather. Once you’ve glued them down, take a photo of your outline and upload it to your class project.

Step 3: Practice shaping and curling strips to fill in your feather. Take a quick photo of your progress and upload it to your class project - you’ll want to look back after the finished product, trust me!

Step 4: Now for the fun! Get started making tight coils using only your fingers and fill out your feather with a little flair. Take a shot of your brand new artwork and upload it! I’m excited to see all the little variations that will make your feather your own!
