My Latest Quilling


I've been so busy and it seems like Christmas has snuck up on me! I have managed to make only two things the last couple of weeks...two ornaments. The first is an ornament of about 1/4 inch with the center spiral that is a 1/2 inch. I then sprayed it with a glaze coating. I love the sturdiness of it. 

The next ornament I made for a sweet friend who had twin boys.  There is pulled out cotton in the background and then the two quilled babies in front.  On the tag in the front is their names and birthdate.  Of course this ornament doesn't come apart,so it was quite the challenge to place and put everything in. Hope you like it!

Here I am rolling it with the quilling tool.   Here I've shaped them into squares...   It really is put together inside this flat plastic ornament!!! T...
