Description:
This custom keepsake was created using the couple's wedding flowers: burgundy carnations, vellum frosting flowers, green ivy, and greenery. Again, it is a one-of-a-kind design shown as an example of possible arrangements/flowers available.
Noted literary figures, the Bronte sisters, were quillers! And another popular author of the same era, Jane Austen, refers to quilling in 'Sense and Sensibility', when Eleanor Dashwood offers to roll papers for Lucy Steele, who is working on a filigree basket.
Quilling is also mentioned in "The Barchester Chronicles." (Contributed by Rosie Graham)

Quilling Tips:
Use two strips of paper together when making tight coils or rolls...goes twice as fast and works just fine. Also one can fringe two strips of paper at a time in the fringer tool, and you can use foil to sharpen the blades in a fringer. [contributed by HAND (^..^) Edith Vandyke]
