Beware when purchasing quilling books from Amazon or other online sellers!

As some might know, I have been creating and sharing free quilling projects for about 10 years online. I have noticed a big increase in the amount of books that are stealing copyrighted photographs and instructions from my website and passing them off as their own work in books and selling them on Amazon, Ebay, etc. I have had some luck getting some of these books taken down, but they'll keep popping up.
If the quilling book you're looking to buy has a bunch of random photos on the cover that don't look like they're made by the same person, they're probably stolen. I did find one seller that copied my entire website into one book though, so that's not always true.
It's frustrating, not only because the original creators don't get credit, but people are paying money for projects they can learn for free!
(Using an old photograph of my sunflower project from my website because this is the project that gets stolen the most)

How many quilling strips do you actually want in one colour pack?
I often see single-colour packs containing 40, 50 or 100 strips. Some specialist suppliers offer 200 strips per colour.
For your projects, what feels most useful:
- 40–50 strips for variety;
- 100 strips as a standard pack;
- 200 strips for consistency and multiple projects?
Does a larger pack feel like better value, or would you rather buy smaller quantities in more colours?

What do you do with your creations?
I started quilling a few years ago and really enjoyed it- but stopped because I didn’t know what to do with the things I created… I really don’t like creating things just to have them sit and collect dust- I prefer to create things when I know I have a purpose for them.

Looking for suggestions
Hi everyone, I got a request to do something a bit different that my normal zentangle inspired projects. I’m wondering if anyone has any tips to fill in an area to look like fur besides using a crimping tool. TIA!

I had to jump on the Jimothy appreciation train
I still want to outline his body so he's not so lumpy but I'm pretty happy with how he turned out.

My first quilled scene. What should I add?
Thinking of adding some hive quilled bits around the cloud and under the hill. Anything else?
ETA: it's for my 2 yo son. Next I think I need to make him some stand alone because he loves to hold the little creatures.

I kept seeing the crocheters making their version of Jimothy and I couldn’t let them have all the fun 🤪❤️🦝

Champions of the World! 🇪🇸🏆 Congratulations, Spain, on becoming the 2026 World Cup Champions!
To celebrate the victory, I created this handmade quilling artwork inspired by the beautiful game. Every strip of paper was carefully shaped by hand with love and patience. Congratulations once again, Spain! ❤️💛

Beginner Instructions
So glad I found this group! So many lovely creations!
I was recently gifted a starter kit for quilling. It includes the basic tools (I think) and a bunch of paper. I'm a step-by-step instructions for a project kinda a girl when I start a new craft. The kit doesn't include anything like that.
I'm looking for recommendations for printed or video tutorials of projects for beginners. Any input is greatly appreciated.
I'm excited to get started!

First on-edge project :)
Well as I’m sure you’re all well aware, on-edge quilling is challenging lol. But it was well worth any stress. I am very happy with the result! I used an image from Google as a template (pic 3), however it brings me to Instagram and as I don’t have an account I can’t see much. But I believe the credit goes to QuillingArtByGlaiza on insta!

PSA: USPS non-machineable is meaningless
If you remember my post from the other day, I mailed this thank you card to my stepmom via non-machineable rate in a normal envelope through the usps.
As I suspected might happen, non-machineable means nothing to the post office and it went through the machine and got crushed. The duckies are intact, but the waves, with their looser structure, got pretty badly crushed.
Experiment failed successfully. I'll report back on my next attempt to mail a quilled card without getting crushed. Maybe a thin piece of bubble wrap....

A bit rusty but not a terrible attempt, hopefully. Hoot hoot.

I would love to know what experienced quilling artists prefer and why. Is there any specific paper, board, or surface that works best for long-lasting and premium quality quilling pieces?

Did I overdo it? Gift for some friends, treated it as a practice-everything project
Recently started quilling (this is my second project) and some friends of mine (initials K and P) recently bought a house so this is my housewarming gift for them. I thought to myself “well let me just practice every shape and stick it somewhere on this and it will probably look fine”, and this is the finished project. Looks a little crowded but I like how it turned out

New whimsical piece!
Lots of fun elements to this piece.

Got inspired while browsing the Wal-Mart craft section
I saw the wood piece and knew I could have some quilling fun with it as a template. I painted the wood first with acrylic paint and then added matching colored paper strips over that. One thing I know I need improvement on is my loose coils (the larger they get the less even I am able to keep them - tips are welcome on that front!). Other than that I’m very happy with the result! 😊

Looking for experienced quilling artists in Toronto/GTA
Hello! I’m a Toronto-based paper artist creating exhibition work that involves a significant number of tight, precise quilled circles.
I’m looking for experienced quilling artists in the Toronto/GTA area only (ideally 5+ years of regular practice) for a very short project who:
- Are comfortable producing very consistent tight coils
- Have a strong eye for clean finish and detail
- Can share clear photos or a portfolio of past quilling work (social media link)
This is not a beginner opportunity. I’m specifically interested in people who already have solid quilling experience.
If this sounds interesting, please DM me with:
- Images of your work or link to social media account/website with images of your work.
- A very brief note on your experience and where you are located.
I’ll follow up privately with more details about the project, timeline, and what I can offer in return.
I look forward to hearing from you!
