Paper
Quilling – Grade Three
Third graders study Colonial America, so we learned about the
popular colonial art of paper quilling.
Students created a design of their choice and were required to
incorporate three different scrolls in their design. The backgrounds were then painted using
liquid water color paints.
The art of 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.
