Mainely Quilling:
I received a copy of Ann's book about a month ago and I immediately tore into it. It was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! Not only is her book beautifully written, it's almost a piece of art in and of itself. The images are stunning. The instructions are clear and concise - to the point where even a beginner can easily produce show-room quality jewelry. There were so many beautiful projects to choose from I had a hard time deciding which one to do first.
Paper Zen:
New and advanced quillers can appreciate Ann's acute attention to detail. Her impeccable care is evident in all the photos of every project. And just look at this divine Petal Power necklace. It's zen-like quality beckons the eye to keep admiring the delicate blossom. I'm so happy Ann's book, The Art of Quilling Paper Jewelry, is in my library and pushed me off the ledge of hesitation.

...also covers how to protect and care for the jewelry pieces. Her tips on how to store and transport them are invaluable. Ann also said, " I always tell recipients of my paper pendants and earrings to treat them as they would any fine jewelry: last thing on, first thing off, and never take them for a swim."
