What is Quilling? Quilling or paper filigree is an art form that involves the use of strips of paper that are rolled, shaped, and glued together to create decorative designs. The paper is wound around a quill to create a basic coil shape. The paper is then glued at the tip and these shaped coils are arranged to form flowers, leaves and various ornamental patterns similar to ironwork.
Free Quilling Class

Wednesday, April 24 from 6 to 8 p.m.
Registration is limited to 10 people!

You may want to bring tweezers with you since we will be working with small pieces. See the picture below to see what I will be teaching. I will be sitting along side you and teaching each step as we create the card together. No one gets lost and we all finish around the same time as everyone else. This is a calm and peaceful environment and doing the craft of quilling relaxes/de-stresses you from your busy life.
I will bring the supplies quilling paper, the quilling tool, any other paper and directions, glue and scissors, and the zip-lock bag to take your supplies home in. You get to go home with the quilling paper and quilling tool.
