Quilling?

Has anyone ever heard of quilling? A brief explication (from Wiki): "Quilling or paper filigree is an art form that involves the use of strips of paper that are rolled, shaped, and glued together to create decorative designs."

Here is an example I borrowed from myscrapbookingmadeeasy.com

When I was younger I remember going to my Great-Grandmother's in Alabama and seeing all the quillings she, my Mom and Grandmother made. They made all kids of lovely figures and flowers. I still amazes me how they can twist up the paper and glue it down where you don't see an thing! The paper just looks as if you have set it upon the other piece of paper. When I find a kit I like I think I am going to purchase and try it!

Speaking of crafts with Elijah on the way I have a whole file folder of things I want to do! The only crafty thing I have done lately is cross stitch some burp pads. They turned out alright. I am going to work on another one today. Being from the South I LOVE anything monogrammed! Anything that I can put Elijah's name on I have. I recently found a few people I know own a monogramming machine, I am super excited! I have a feeling Eli's things with all have his names on it.

All for now.

With Love,
