Finished quilled chess set :)

Finally, I have manages to finish the quilling chess set. I know, I know I should post a tutorial but I swear, I just don't have time right now. I sure WILL, I promise, as soon as I get time. The household and job commitments are too many right now!

Happy Quilling

Quilling Chess Set

I am currently onto quilling a chess set, a project for a friend's anniversary. I had no idea that it will be so well liked or that there are kits available for quilling an entire set. But well, people are likely to come up with similar ideas with a similar raw material. The work is still under progress and I am hoping to be able to finish it in about 10 days or so. I only get this much time per day to do it :-) Some WIP (work-in-progress) pictures:

The toughest part of this project is to get a design for the pieces in your head. Translating them to quilling is not so difficult (until I came to the Knight). Ordinary white and black 120 gsm paper is what I am using as of now (except for the bases of non-pawn pieces) which is 300 gsm chart paper
