Looking for raw or dyed quills

(1/2) > >>

Pat B:
As said above I'm gonna attempt to try my hand at quill work. I got a book and watched Becca Parker do some quill work at the Classic. I found out raw quills are a bit expensive just to see if I want to get serious about it. If I do get serious about it I will buy some but for now I just need enough to get started.  I generally have lots of stuff to trade.

Ed Brooks:
Sorry, I don’t have any but thought I’d share this. To collect quills from rd kill. Drop the dead porky pine in a styrofoam cooler, roll it around inside cooler. The quills stick in the foam, then just dump porky back out.  Good luck! Ed

Pat B:
If we had porcupine I'd do that, Ed but they live farther north than I do. Great idea though.

Hawkdancer:
Pat,
I will check my quill work box and see how many will be available.  I'm not doing much quillwork lately!

Hawkdancer:
May have to carry an extra styrofoam cooler to the hills next trip!  A burlap sack helps, too.
