November QuillingFun

Somehow my posts were stopped from auto posting and I have a lot to catch up on and show you! I’ve been mad busy since October making things for the annual Markham Woods Presbyterian Church Pumpkin festival and starting projects for Christmas.
I bought some wooden embellishments that are exactly 1/8″ thick. They are perfect for quilling into!
First, I stain them and then I cover the back with card stock paper.

Then, I take and quill and fill in the gaps with my quilling strips.

My last step is to spray it with a clear non-yellowing sealant to protect it from dust.

I hope everyone has had a wonderful Thanksgiving (for those who celebrate) and this post finds you doing well!

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...
