Quilling, the art of paper filigree, involves rolling, shaping and manipulating narrow strips of paper which are then set on edge to create intricate designs.Philippa Reid is a fully Accredited (Higher Level) Fellow of the international Quilling Guild, and the author of a comprehensive practical guide to quilling techniques, published by The Crowood Press.
Philippa’s standard participatory Beginners’ Paper Quilling Workshop is designed to be an enjoyable hands-on ‘taster’ session for groups of up to ten people. The basic workshop lasts 2 – 3 hours, and includes the following elements:
– An introduction to quilling and its history
– Examples of antique and contemporary quilling
– Basic techniques of paper coil making and creation of simple shapes
– The assembly of shapes to create a variety of quilled motifs.
By the end of the workshop, each participant will have made a quilled design to take away with them. This typically takes the form of a small picture or greetings card.
The workshop is a relaxing, fun and sociable experience which usually leaves participants eager to try some more quilling in their own time.
