Quilling Fun

This post about Quilling is in response to a question I had on Facebook “What’s involved?” You need strips of paper in different colours, a quilling tool (with purple handle in photo below) and glue. A pair of scissors would be handy - although you could easily tear off the paper. My own experience with quilling is very new. In the condo where I live, we had a Sunday afternoon craft workshop recently and all of us in attendance were introduced to the art of paper quilling. Paper quilling has been around for a long time. “The art of quilling dates as far back as the 16th and 17th centuries when the French and Italian nuns and monks would decorate reliquaries, holy pictures, and frames with quilled pieces.” (Paper Quilling for the first Time) It’s very easy to do and fun. After that introduction to quilling, it was something that I wanted to explore. I found myself online looking for quilling supplies and ordered a beginner’s quilling supply kit. Since then I’ve been having lots of fun.
