Keeping the hands busy

I used to have a little shop on Etsy where I handmade and sold jewelry.  It was a lot of fun but I wasn't able to devote the time that I really wanted in the upkeep.  Then because of my husbands cancer diagnosis last year all jewelry making was put on hold.  All monies had to go towards his care and buying the best of supplies can be very expensive.
Lately I have gotten into quilling or paper filigree which is something I can take with me to the hospital and do while waiting for hubby to have his treatments.
It has fast become an addiction and mainly because it is easy and works up really fast so you can see the finished product quickly.
There are amazing artists in this field out there and I will be posting some links to my favorites.
