Origins of quilling

About the origins of quilling

Did you know that quilling dates back centuries? It first appeared as a substitute for metal filigree during the 14th century. It was originally known as paper filigree or paper rolling. The craft got the name quilling during American colonial times. Back then, feather quills and porcupine quills were used to wind the coils. This is an old craft that has been popular at various times in history. It is becoming popular again and is a craft well-suited for both kids and adults.
