Since the Q Corner Convention, a number of the instructors have very kindly shared additional information to further supplement their classes, including photographs, class notes and materials lists. To make it easier for everyone to find for future reference, I have documented these, along with their class video, in a series of blog posts that I will publish over the next few weeks.

Class Title: Maillestrom is a storm shape of ring's combination.
"It looks really gorgeous with Chrome and metal color balloons."
"I thank Soo Chin for the invitation to be one of instructor in Q Corner Convention.I have received many thanks from balloon artists from around the world, who made 'Maillestrom' and tagged me immediately! Because of an audio problem, I was unable to show you the variation of Maillestrom. So, I would like to explain here: Based on Maillestrom design that I taught, the center structure which called Mobius ball could link to other Mobius balls. This linking method is called the Moorish Rose Weave. You can see the tutorial by visiting https://chainmail101.com/moorish-rose or click HERE. The Materials that you will need is in the picture's description. The length of Mobius ball's ring is 80cm, and the silver ball in the center is five pumps size. With Qualatex Chrome Colors, you can also make fine art! Again, thanks for your watching, and see you next time in Q Corner. This is Chun-Lin, Sung from Taiwan, stay safe and be healthy, Cheers!"

Class Title: New Techniques for Flower Designs
"Spring is in the air, but be it summer, autumn or winter, everybody loves to see flowers! Flower are great eye-catchers in any design, whether for private parties or corporate events. Luc will start off with showing a new way of integrating flower patterns and geo blossoms in classic decor. This technique can be used in pedestals and columns up to arches. Then, Luc will show a rather unusual way of making a flower-base that can be made small or big, resulting in a whole range of possibilities. Centrepiece, gift, large arrangement, column or arch? Discover them in this session."These are the slides that Luc shared during his class:
Here are some of the designs that have been made by viewers of Luc's class that have been shared on social media!
