Click with your mouse on one of the lines and there they are: my cards!In May 2005 I started my quillingsite and up and until March 2011 I had 39,543 visitors! 58% from abroad. I hope a lot of people will be inspired by all information on my quilling-website. New cards and freestandings are added almost weekly to the Gallery. Below the Dutch starting page (home) there is a list with links to all new cards.

Huskings are filigree shapes which are wound around pins in a certain pattern. All the patterns are given in my bilingual book "Quilling for cards" are easy to use.
"Quilling for cards" I designed a series of huskings and made cards with them.Huskings are quillingshapes made by using pins and winding paperstrips following various patterns. With these shapes you can make wonderful flowers, butterflies and other figures.The patterns are all in the book and are easy to use.Be surprised by the versatility of quilling! This bilingual book is published in Dutch as well as in English.

The Dutch Quilling Guild is a national association which was founded in January 1989. Two times per year somewhere in the country an activity day is organized. Members can display their quilling projects and it's possible to do some quilling yourself at the "do-table" and meet other quillers. Some members will demonstrate their skills. At the various trade stands you may find the most beautiful colours of paper strips, the latest quillingbooks and tools.
The Guilds magazine “Verdraaid” appears four times a year. It is made for, but especially by members. All cards and other entries will be published anyhow. Some of the designs in “Verdraaid” are just drawings to stimulate your fantasy and others have a detailed description. Furthermore you can read any recent information about the Guild and all details about future activity days and other events where the Guild is present with a stand. Also several sales addresses of quilling materials are mentioned.
The contribution for the membership of the quillingassociation amounts to Euro 25,00 per year including Euro 2,00 registration fee (one time only).The association year runs of 1 July up to and including 30 June of the next year.
For information concerning the membership you can contactMevr. A. v.d. Poll-Jordanse-mail: a.vandepollTel. (+31)023-5333822

(Holzfiligran, Heimatmuseum, Berchtesgaden)
Box and cover were often made separately.
The woodturners from Berchtesgadenerland only used maple-tree wood without knots.
There is a lot of quillingart in the Heimatmuseum in Berchtesgaden (Germany).
To make coils that are all the same size, a quilling board is easy to use.
Roll a paperstrip from one or both ends. Roll in the same or the opposite direction. Alternatively glue several open coils together.
Did you ever buy or receive quillingpaper as a present and you still don't know what to do with it?Have you ever been a quillingqueen or quillingking, but you forgot some of the techniques? I will show you some basics.....
For every quilling shape goes: the size of the shape depends on the length of the paperstrip used. The longer the strip, the bigger the shape.I do realize that all over the world different names are being used for basic quilling shapes. I would like to make this list as complete as possible. And I could use your help to accomplish that. So if you know any other names for the shapes mentioned or if you have a better way of describing it, please let me know and I will add it. Thank you for your help.

Below I give a short description of the various techniques I used for all cards and tags. In the Gallery the code appears by holding the mouse on the photo.
The square quillingcards at this page are approximately 13 cm. x 13 cm.All other cards are about 15 cm. x 10,5 cm.The square giftcards at this page are approximately 6,5 cm. x 6,5 cm.All other cards are about 8 cm. x 6,5 cm.
example
sv – stansvormen = punch shapes
Punch shapes are shapes of cardboard or paper that are punched out by machines. A wide variety of shapes is possible, from ordinary rectangles, squares, circles and ovals to flowers, leaves, animals, Christmas bells etc.
w – webbing
Webbing is a technique where you fix sequins with beads and embroidery threads on to a frame. The shape of the frame is also cut out of the card and by working from one end to the other and back you create a kind of (spiders-)web.
o – ornare = pricking
Webbing is a technique where you prick a motive on the inside of a card using a template or a pattern. The relief on the front of the card is now ready to be decorated with quilling.
ov – ornare-vellum = pricking parchment
The same technique as ORNARE, but now you use parchment to prick.
ps – pricking and stamping
Prick a pattern (see ornare) from the book of Leane de Graaf: "Prikmotieven rond bloemen en blaadjes" (Prickingpatterns round flowers and leaves) ISBN 90 5945 089 2. Then stamp a few leaves and branches and complete the card with quillingflowers.rick.
br – borduurrand = embroidery border
Prick a border using a template or a pattern and embroider it. You can also add small beads.
