Quilling Letters 102 - Part 2

quilling paper letter word monogram

When confronted with a letter like "y", I like to pause for a second and study where the most challenging part of the letter is, and tackle that part first.

In this case, I want to solidly glue the inner angle first, allowing the sides and bottom to fall into place around it.

Yep. Very happy I'm dealing with the tail AFTER most of the other bits are down {whew!}.

Oops, the curve isn't quite where I want it to be. No prob. I'll just do selective curving.

Ok, just a bit more...

Now to dab glue to the end of the "y" so it can be glued against the other end.

Here I'm using my tweezers to help align the ends so the join looks clean and I'm saved the hassle of having to trim any excess.

Similar to the "w", I secured the top edges of the "u" first, then worked my way down. Since I anticipated this one to be tricky, again I skipped the prior letter.

What would I do without my tweezers?

At this point, I feel like a snake handler, wrestling with the lowercase "r".

Quilling Letter L - Cut Coil Flowers

A friend and I were beading necklaces one day and she suggested I arrange the beads randomly. For my organized brain, that sounded like blasphemy, but I gave it a try and happily realized it was perfectly imperfect. Since then I've embraced randomness wherever I can. My latest video shows a technique that I call "Cut Coil Flowers", because they are formed by cutting a coil apart. The resulting petals vary in size, resulting in random flower petals. They are surprisingly fast to make. Even though the letter L was enlarged 150%, it still allowed for a large showy area on my 6x6 card.  Download the template here. My new PDF e-book,   Quilling Letters  is available in my Etsy shop.  Every side and curve of the 26 letters of the alphabet is pre-measured – j ust lay your strip on top of my patterns, score, snip, fold, and glue.
