I was fortunate enough to learn how to do this by hand, without the tool, from my grandma when i was a young lad. I wasnt aware you could get a tool but i think im definitely going to be investing in one. Ive yet to come across another man who does quilling which is a shame i think, you can make some fantastic pieces.
We've never seen it done by hand, would be quite something to see. But yes, perhaps the tool would make things a little easier. It's a wonderful form of paper art that can be as varied in theme as your imagination allows.
I am just beginning to learn this beautiful art form & your tutorial is the best I have seen so far. Thank you for being so thorough & explaining the most basic things. I love that you explain about the tools & the different sizes of paper & so on, it was so helpful.
I took a quilling class at my public library. Instead of store bought quilling paper, she used colored copy paper that she cut with an older paper shredder. The strips weren't perfect, but was great for us beginners and unless you are a quiller, you probably couldn't look at my picture and see the difference. 💕🌞🌵😷
I've just come across quilling in a jigsaw app and decided to investigate. Yours was the 1st video I came across and I have to say I'm glad it was. Your explanations on what you need and how to do basic shapes has left me wanting to learn more. thank you for sharing your craft
What a delightful and thorough presentation! I no longer have the dexterity to do quilling but am endlessly fascinated by the design options and possibilities.
Just come across your video, just want to say a huge thank you! You explained this in really simple turns. Made it really easy for me to understand. Thank you 🙏🏻 I’m at the teardrop shape ❤😊
Thank you! I'm looking forward to giving this a try! Do you happen to have anything showing how to make the design used in the centers of the daisy and sunflower shown about 17:10-17:30?
We hope you enjoy your quilling experience :) there isn't a video from us on how to make those centers but it is achieved by crimping the quilling strips. After a quick google we found this video which may help th-cam.com/video/6SCk-S8BlrE/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and expertise. I have been watching various videos and none have touched on the problem I am having. I was so confused as to how these presenters were getting their coils to turn into the teardrop shapes so easily. I assumed it had to do with the length of strip but no video or directions in the beginners kit given to me addressed the issue. I don’t feel quite as stupid anymore thanks to you. I am now wondering if not using a pattern, as you mentioned, what is the standard length to use to make the various shapes as a beginner. I understand experience will tell me in the future, but for now, where should I start? I would be ever so grateful for any advice you are willing to share. Thank you.
Hello, we are happy to hear the video has helped. Now the length all depends on the size of shapes you would like to make. Try experimenting with half strip or quarter strips and get a feel for the size shapes you end up with with. Our standard strips are approx. 45cm in total so try using fractions of that total measurement. Diane also filmed some beginner technique videos that you may find helpful.

Thank you so much for the very nice explanation of the individual parts. I enjoyed the video and will definitely watch more videos of your work.
Beginner flowers often look better than advanced quilling - these are beautiful.
Thank you 💕

Fantastic!! What paper are you using to mount your work on - bond paper? Love your tutorials!
During this video Diane was working on a 300gsm card to mount the quilled pieces on to. So happy you enjoyed watching.
Your accent helps - sounds terribly similar to what I grew up with in Cowley near Uxbridge as a youngster.
How did you do the middle of the flower with the yellow middle and white petals?
