The Art of Paper Quilling
Basic Quilling Resources
According
to Wikipedia, Quilling is the art of creating decorative designs from
thin strips of curled paper. This age-old art of paper
quilling has been around since Renaissance which dates back to about
3 to 4 centuries during the time when the nuns used small edges trimmed
from the Bible pages to create simple but beautiful form of artistry.
Using simple tools, long strips of paper are tightly wound and released
to form complicated and complex shapes. This form of art was also known
as "Paper Filligree".
Because of how the scrapped of paper were wrapped around goose quilles
to create "coiled shapes", it was later known as "Quilling".
