On the third day of quilling we will make a beautiful Scrolled Christmas Tree. I love to challenge myself to use a particular shape and today it is the scroll shape. Please refer to my previous Scroll and More Scroll shape instructions for making this tree.
For making this tree I used 1/8 inch (.3 cm) wide strips. For this design you will need the following number of strips:
1 Heart-T-Scroll
- 1 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) heart scroll
- 1 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) T-scroll
2 Kissing scrolls
- 4 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) S-scrolls
Remaining branches
- 6 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) S-scrolls
- 6 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) double scrolls
Topper
- 1 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) red diamond
Trunk
- 1 - 3 inch (7.62 cm) red S-scroll
To put this tree together, I recommend the following:
- Place the Heart-T-Scroll down first
- Line up your 2 kissing scrolls next
- To keep a straight line, it may be best to work over a piece of wax paper with graph paper underneath. Then you can use the straight lines to make sure your tree is straight.
- S-scroll, pointing down
- Double scroll, pointing up
- S-scroll, pointing down
- Double scroll, pointing up
- Double scroll, pointing down
- S-scroll, pointing down
See the picture for placement. You can then adorn the tree as in this example with pearls.
Enjoy!
