Quilling Floral Doll

 Hello friends ,

Quilling Floral Doll

               Here is a new and completely unique quilling doll which is done using a different concept. The skirt of the doll is made using the basket/bowl  technique. The upper part of the body is done in the same way as I did for my earlier dolls.

The lower part or you can say the doll skirt is done using a bowl. Let me explain the steps:

• Take a bowl or a basket ( whichever size you want for the skirt ).
• Take 4 quilling strips ( 10 mm ) . Attach them . I have used blue colour quilling strip.
• Start rolling the strip around the outer part of the bowl. This will form the base for the skirt.

     Note - Do not stick any quilling strip to the bowl.

• I have a made some quilling flowers using marquise and tear drop shapes.
• Stick the flowers one next to the other around the bowl.
• Make a tight coil using 10 quilling strips ( 5 mm ). Let this be the center of the skirt.
• Join a  quilling strip from the center coil  to the flower. This will give support to the coils.
• Make 6 tear drop shapes using 3 mm quilling strips . Attach in the pattern shown in the picture.I have used red colour quilling strip.
• Place it in between the quilling flowers.
• Make some leaf shapes and fill up the empty space. 
• Take a white colour quilling strip and make a zigzag flower. Refer to my video for details.
• Stick them on the upper layer of the skirt.
• Decorate the skirt with some beads and pearls.
• Apply varnish completely. Once dried detach the skirt from the bowl.
