The tulip was an experiment and didn't work out very well.
I found a stack construction paper at Sam's Club for under $10.00, so these flowers are very inexpensive to make. I used one inch wide, 12-inch long strips and glued various colors end to end to make the individual petals.
I crimped ALL the strips before looping or rolling. The crimping technique (as explained in my book) seems to make the pieces easier to work with, plus a bit more sturdy.
Thanks for looking!

Those are fabulous. Love them.
I wanted to let you know that my blog post scheduled for 7p.m tonight has a link to your blog. I made a card using your pattern for fall leaves and linked to you.
Thank you so much Ann! I cannot wait to see the card. As always, thanks for stopping by and taking the time to post. hugs xo
now I feel horrible. I schedule my posts and looked at the wrong day. The post with the card and your link are today the 19th at 7:00. Sorry for the mix up. You would think I was just trying to get visitors wouldn't you?...lol
I love them all. They would make great decor items on your wall.
I'm with Cheryl... can definitely see these as wall decor in a little girl's bedroom - how cute!
Ann in PA, that's OK! I knew you either got busy or it was a schedule change! I'm on the end of my chair :) lol
Ann and Cheryl, those were auctioned off at the end of the show and everyone said they would go on the wall. HA I do have some 12" snowflakes I hang on the walls at Christmas. I like miniatures and gigantic quilling! Thanks for dropping by! xo
Gorgeous Molly ...love these great big quilled flowers ...and one day I will get around to making myself a few ...
