Quilled flowers


Many of you know I have fallen in love with quilling.  Here is a project I did from the Quilled Flowers book: the cherry blossom.  These were very fun to make, and I found the perfect stick to put them on.  However, I can't really see my stick on a card, as the book depicts.  Instead, I will probably put this project in a small display shadow box I will hang on my wall.  I have quilled leaves, flowers, cupcakes, snowflakes, and even bats!  My thank you to all the quilling patterns and help out there on the internet and in printed books.  I will definitely be making some of these projects.  Quilling is relaxing and fun, even if two don't come out the exact same size!  I have found that if the project directions specify to make three of a particular shape, I am better off making five and choosing the best three!  Oh, well!  To err is human!  Or so they say!

  1. These are beautiful, Jane. So delicate and petite, I think they would look great in a shadow box. Thanks for sharing.
