Free Quilling Pattern Shooting Stars


This is a great patriotic pattern for the 4th of July. I was trying to get the feel of fireworks, and I think this works.

Stars (make 3 stars)


  • Make 4 of these Red and White Teardrops
  • 1 - Red (1.5 inch, 3.8 cm) plus 1 White (1.5 inch, 3.8 cm) - glue these strips end-to-end and make a Teardrop shape- roll this very tightly

  • Make 1 of these Blue and Red Tight Rolls for the center
  • 1 - Blue (1.5 inch, 3.8 cm) plus 1 Red (1.5 inch, 3.8 cm) - glue these strips end-to-end and make a Tight Roll
  • Place the Tight Roll in te center and glue rounded end of Teardrop to tight roll
These are the "Shooting" part :-)
  • 1 - Red S-Scroll (6 inch, 15.2 cm)
  • 1 - White S-Scroll (6 inch, 15.2 cm)
  • 1 - Blue S-Scroll (6 inch, 15.2 cm)
  • Curl all S-Scrolls so that the top of the "S" is smaller than the bottom
  • Glue S-Scrolls together and arrange all 3 Stars as shown in the photo

I hope that you have a chance to make some for your 4th of July Celebration!

Enjoy!

Free Quilling Pattern Happy Song Birds

quilled song birds
Here is a sweet project using a 2-1/2 x 3-1/2 inch format (ATC size) - I still haven't decided if it will be added to a card or framed? Why not share your thoughts in a comment?

I started with a 2 part crackle medium. This is easy to use:
  • Start with a dark navy blue as the base, let it dry
  • Apply the crackle medium, let it dry
  • Paint a white top coat over the crackle medium and this is where the magic occurs - as the paint drys it creates "cracks" where the blue peaks through

Then I painted some tree branches in blue (I am into blue these days) :-)

This is where the quilling is added....

2 Song Birds (make each one this way - updated paper length):
  • 1 - 12 in ( 30.4 cm) redshaped teardrop - play with this a little to get it to look like the body
  • 1 - 6 in ( 15.2 cm) red teardrop for the head - lay this teardrop with the pointed end on top of the rounded body
  • 1 - 1.5 in (3.8 cm) white beak - roll into a lose coil and push into center to create the beak


The remaining accents all use 1/16 in ( cm) wide paper
  • 10 - 3 in ( 7.6 cm) green shaped marquise
  • 1 - 3 in ( 7.6 cm) green teardrop
  • 3 - 1.5 in ( 3.8 cm) green spiral
  • 4 - 1.5 in ( 3.8 cm) red tight roll - for buds
  • 8 - 1.5 in ( 3.8 cm) white tight roll - for buds

Arrange as shown and you have pair of very Happy Song Birds!

Enjoy!
