Hi Friends,
Quilling Box |
As festivals are going on , I thought of making some handmade Quilling gift boxes. Can be used for gifting on any special occasion.
Welcome to the world of Archana's Quilling Art: Quilling is the art in which strips of paper are rolled , shaped and glued together to make intricate designs. I started to take up small and simple projects like a Photo Frame , greeting cards etc. As and when I started doing it , it became more and interesting for me. In quilling you can use your own creativity and your own designs. ...
Hi Friends,
Wishing everyone a very Happy Krishna Janmashtami . On this occasion I have made a Fabric Doll of Sri Krishna . I learnt this beautiful Doll by Mrs Vidhya. When I saw the fabric dolls , I was tempted to make one . I saw the post about fabric doll workhop on facebook . I contacted Mrs Vidhya for further details. She taught me from the basics of fabric doll and how to create it. I learnt a lot during the workshop. Thanks a lot Vidhya ❤️ for teaching me this wonderful art 👌 .
The fabric doll is very different form Quilling doll . Here the face is readymade. And the body you need to stitch using cloth. All the parts of the doll has to be stitched to one another and to give strength to the doll you have to used wire. You can decorate the doll as per your wish using necklace , kundans , mirrors etc.. Very excited to make another doll .
Planning to create more Fabric dolls . Keep watching for more...
Hi friends,
Happy Ram navami to all. I have made the complete set Sri Rama , Mata Sita , Sri Hanuman and Sri laxman in quilling .
Hi friends,
Let's seek Sri Rama's blessings. I feel so blessed to complete the Idol of Sri Rama.
Jai Shri Ram |
It was a great feeling to make this happen. I studied in depth many images of Lord Sri Ram to choose on body colour, facial attributes, including his bow (Kodanda), Finally I was able to visualize the image in my mind and based on that I ordered the quilling strips of various sizes & colours.
I started making the face of the idol first as it was most difficult and time consuming, including hairs from the quilling strips, next I designed the crown of the lord and attached it to the face. The middle torso and the legs, hands, lastly added the palms and foot of the lord.
It took really good time to design the Bow (Kodanda) when decided to use only quilling strips yet make it sturdy finally I was able to get the right shape and strength, followed by Quiver and arrows.Finally I made the garland for the Lord. Drawing the facial features was a challenging part.
Hi Friends,

The doll were displayed at Garuda Mall on 9th October. I had made 12 Rashi Devatas dolls in Quilling. It was a great moment when I received the title. I would like to thank our organizer Mrs Roopa Sanjay for giving us this great opportunity.
A special thanks to my family members without whose support it would not have been possible.
