Quilling or Paper Filigree

Quilling is the craft of arranging, curling and bending small strips of paper to create beautiful and detailed artwork. Quilling is the art of creating decorative designs from thin strips of curled paper.Using simple tools, long strips of paper are tightly wound and released to form complex shapes. Also called paper filigree, the art has been practiced since the Renaissance.



If you would like to learn Quilling. Diana Esparza will be teaching this coming  Fall 2010 at The Ottawa-Carleton Catholic Continuing Education.
