This may be a picture whose style reflects the themes:

• Nature;
• Season of the year;
• Animals etc.

To begin with, let's consider what quilling is: this is one of the types of handicraft, which is the creation of paintings from thin strips of paper by twisting and giving paper circles of various shapes.

Many people call quilling paper filigree, because such paintings look no less beautiful than classical filigree in jewelry.

This art is quite a few years old. The first mention of it ranges from the 14th to the 15th century, and it was common in monastic circles at various monasteries. The monks created ornate paper decorations. All this was explained by the fact that ordinary people could not afford such expensive material at that time as paper, which is now available to almost everyone.

Quilling paintings are popular due to their subtle beauty, which is more reminiscent of the finest lace, but has a pleasant volume than the usual classic lace of thread. There are a wide variety of instructional videos. Any such video mater-class will help people who begin to master quilling, get acquainted with all the basic techniques, any subtleties of this manual labor, as well as well-known quilling masters often share their secrets that will help in the subsequent independent work with paper strips.

For work you will need:

1. Paper strips of special paper. This is double-sided colored paper. It can already be cut into thin strips, or it can be whole sheets and then you need a special device for smooth cutting of paper.
2. Tools for working with paper: tweezers, scissors, needles. Also, in the modern “market”, you can purchase special devices designed to better give the paper the forms you need, for quickly twisting paper strips, and so on.

Choosing a picture for beginners: quilling

For beginners, working in the style of quilling in the first couple may seem complicated, but it happens with any art. Therefore, it is best to start with ready-made schemes of paintings for paper filigree. Now there are more than one thousand different schemes for beginners. Best of all, at the beginning of the journey, take small schemes on which all the main types of twists from paper strips are well developed, and you can find quite a lot of them. And before you return for serious colorful work, it is worthwhile to thoroughly work out each kind.

Let's look at why quilling is so popular among residents of the modern world, there are a number of reasons for this:

1. Availability of materials for your hobby. As we have already said, at this stage of the modern development of the industry, colored paper is not a luxury and it is accessible to almost everyone, even special quilling paper cut into ready-made take-and-do strips. Paper can be made not only in our country, but a foreign country can also produce it. It all depends on your own wishes. A foreign paper producer may be, for example, Chinese, or maybe Japanese. Such paper is considered one of the best for work.
2. Simplicity in work and assembly of the made picture. One has only to master the basics and the main types of elements. They are available for both adults and children.
3. Benefit. Quilling makes you be careful, which will help the child develop perseverance and fine motor skills of his hands, and the adult to temporarily get away from daily stressful situations. Some prefer to spend money on psychologists, and many prefer to spend this amount and even less on materials for their work, which, moreover, can then be sold.
4. Result. What could be nicer than to finish a long creative work and see the result, which will please its beauty?

The beautiful works of beginning masters are appreciated by experienced people who have long been creating voluminous paintings from paper stripes. Also, novice masters can emphasize a lot in the workshops of Larisa Zasadnaya.

DIY quilling patterns

The choice of a scheme for a picture should be approached thoughtfully not only by beginners, but also by experienced people. And depending on the desire, ready-made schemes can be supplemented with elements or assemble several schemes together.

We will analyze the main types of paper elements in the quilling technique:

• Spiral: only two main types are free and tight;
• A drop;
• Triangle;
• Arrow; It is modeled from a triangle;
• Leaflet; He is also called the "eye";
• Rectangle;
• Semicircle;
• Crescent; It turns out from an element a semicircle;
• Horns;
• Curl;
• Twig;
• Heart.

If desired and with special inspiration from these basic elements, combining their manufacture from a tight or free spiral, you can create new types of elements for more complex paintings and voluminous crafts.

To study each of them in the initial stages, you can use a variety of stencils, especially if you need to follow some standardized size.

Further, when a person is gaining experience, he can already create schemes with his own hands for future paintings that match his wishes and fantasies. Thus, everyone can touch not only the art of quilling, but also the very mystery of creating work “from scratch”.

Learning quilling techniques: pattern schemes

If we consider modern patterns for paper work in the style of quilling, you will notice that most of them are accompanied by a step-by-step description of each action, which helps to make the creation of paper lace easier and more enjoyable. It is worth saying that in the manufacture of paintings in the style of quilling can use more than one type of quilling.

What types can be involved in the work:

• Quilling based on so-called rolls, i.e. paper rolls;
• Silhouette quilling; It is contour or graphic;
• Looped;
• Quilling Behive;
• Mixed.

Each master decides for himself which of these types he is going to use in his work, because for each of the patterns of the picture you can use your own. For example, make trees in one style, and, for example, daisies in another. The main thing here is that the types of equipment used are suitable for each other and look harmonious, otherwise the result of your work will not be what you expected in your ideas.

Subject quilling: paintings from paper

The theme for the future picture can be anything, here the wizard’s imagination is not limited to anything, if only he himself could draw up a diagram according to which he will work. By the way, some experienced masters do without schemes, creating voluminous works directly during the process itself, and only when they are finished do they see what came of it in the end.

Ideas on the subject can be completely different: from simple to the most daring, complex and bright.

For example:

1. Classic winter. Winter works can also be both light and complex, depending on what the author wants to display.
2. A girl is one of the common motives of quilling works.
3. Spring motives.
4. Flower bouquets, for example, you can take gerberas.

For all this, you can use any templates and stencils, but you can only rely on your skill and experience. Also, when working with thin paper strips and creating pictures from them, you can experiment with the background, but it’s better to choose a background that will be in harmony with the work itself, although you should not exclude the fact that some works are fully disclosed only when using radically contrast im background.
