<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DragonflyWink, post: 66324, member: 111&quot;]Have seen a resurgence of quilling in the last few years, but I played with it in the mid &#039;70s (still have a bunch of strips stashed away somewhere), and know that classes were still pretty common at craft shops well into the &#039;80s, would guess this was a chart/sampler from one of those 1970s-&#039;80s classes.&nbsp; Looks like someone was so focused on their &#039;calligraphy&#039; (also popular in the same time period) that they misspelled &quot;Quilling&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>My Mom learned Palmer method in the &#039;30s, my brothers in the &#039;50s, and it was the same method taught to me in the &#039;60s - Mom and one brother still write and print beautifully, the other brother and I have more eccentric, though still legible, backhanded scribbles (I can write in near perfect Palmer script, but it&#039;s not natural to my hand).&nbsp; Really, more often use my graphic arts/drafting block-letter printing, can print as fast I write, and have found that some, especially younger folks, have difficulty in reading cursive, even if very legible...</p><p><br /></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
