Modern Quilling

Quilling is weird. Rolling up loads of tiny strips of paper and sticking them together? Weird.
But I did do some quilling as a kid. It was basic - leaves and flowers and that was it.

Cut to today: thanks to Yulia Brodskaya, I find out there's a lot more you can do with these coloured strips of paper than just leaves and flowers. This is my first attempt at quilling since I was a child. Not perfect, but striking nonetheless.

  2. Wow! Would never have known that was a first attempt! I makes me think that would be such a nice thing as a welcoming present to people or a birthday decoration. It makes me think of something you hope to find when you come home from hospital or something. Really pretty!
