The Art of Paper Quilling - Paper quilling or paper filigree is a fascinating paper craft best defined as the rolling, scrolling, shaping, or fringing of narrow strips of paper. The rolled shapes are glued to hold their size and then pinched to result in specific shapes and grouped together to make miniature designs.
