Quilling patterns - Fringed Flower Design

Some bunch of Fringed flower quilling craft is back again. This craft is a blend of beautiful and attractive colour papers.

Here i have done a fringed flower craft using two different colours.

For this you have to use two different contrast colours, for eg: purple and pink, red and yellow.

Here I'll explain you the making of this flower, as i said the two colour combination is your choice and can make more beautiful flowers.

How to make these bunch of fringed flowers:

1. Fringed Flower: Make 2 fringed flowers using 3 1/2" lengths of 3/8" width purple paper, 2 fringed flowers using 3 1/2" lengths of 3/8" width deep aqua paper, and 1 fringed flower using a 3 1/2" length of 3/8" aqua paper. make 2 fringed flowers using 3" lengths of 1/4th width pink and 1 fringed flower using a 3" length of 1/4" width purple paper.
