Started Learning and creating Quilling items.

Quilling or paper filigree is an art that uses 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 glued at the tip and then coil shaped. These shaped coils are arranged to form flowers, leaves and various ornamental patterns similar to iron work. We can use quilled art work for decorations in crafts. I am enjoying learning this art work. This time for Saranya's 7th month birthday planning to make quill decorations. Soon I will update with procedure to make quill items
