Believe it or not, the holidays are around the corner. So, now is your chance to create two paper-quilled angels, taught two different ways. Whether you simply frame them, hang them on your tree, or include them on cards or packages, they will have a special place in your heart and house. Once you know how to make these angels, you can make them for future holidays to share with family and friends.

Erin Newman, SBR resident and Southern Arizona Artists Guild artist, will once again be offering her expertise with this paper-quilling class.
