Tangled in Quilling!!!

Hi all,
My third Challenge as DT member is to make Quilled 'A'...
This was indeed a bit hard to thing one.
Was thinkin of doing something new in Quilling which i have not tried for a long time.
my niece, Ananya 's name struck my mind .. her bday being in july .. so thought of gifting her my quilling work.So, why not her name in it?
Then came the idea of making a Quilled Wall art with 'Ananya' name by including the Zentangle art into it.
Zentangle is a new art to me, which i have been tryin to learn quite a few days.
Its like a meditation,stress buster.Anyone can try .. its indeed a cool one.

Now, about this Name frame..
The Entire art in 13" x13"  card stock paper. I wanted to make it more pleasing to eyes, so chose Off white and gold as colours. Letters are of Gold,hand written and cut into shape and then quilled with off white colour.Added a gold background to make it more standout.
The work is yet to be framed.
Hope the whole work as come out good.
