I managed to make two Valentine’s Day quilled pieces in two very distinct and different techniques. The first was using my cricut to cut out the word love. (Did I mention my wonderful hubby gave me one for Christmas?) I did a double layer cut out and then quilled around the inner layer with a matching pink 1/8′ strip. For the hearts, I just free handed cut and glued them on and then used the spiral technique to go around the edge of the hearts. I wanted to experiment more with the spiral technique, so I did…
This is the result of my experiment. Lots and LOTS of spirals glued into place. It is an 8×8′ piece and I admit the curves and maintaining the spiral consistency was a challenge. It was a fun and challenging piece…
