This Quilling project made with the inspiration of calendula flowers. I like calendula flowers very much because of their bright colours. For this quilled frame work I made 2 types of calendula flowers.
For making orange quilled flower petals 2 types of shapes has used marquise and curved teardrops. To get a shade in petals I used 2 shades of yellow strips . Each petal is made using 24 c.m long and 3 m.m wide marquise surrounded by 2 curved teardrop shapes each with 12 c.m long and 3 m.m wide strips.
Remaining all the flowers are made using heart shape petals centered with a fringed flower. All the leaves are made with olive green color strips.
For this quilled frame work big butterfly bought good look and beauty. Quilled butterfly is made with red white and black strips all are 3 m.m wide. Total finished work framed in a shadowbox 27x21 c.m.
