Publisher's Synopsis
The art of quilling is an ancient art of noble origins, that goes back to the time of the ancient Egyptians that saw its most prosperous period during the Renaissance when in Italy and France, nuns and monks used strips of golden paper to embellish the covers of religious books, the relics of saints and icons.
You too can learn this wonderful technique of cutting paper into long dainty strips, folding and squeezing the pieces into various shapes, and afterward sticking the ways together to frame enlivening artistry, thanks to this book.
