What I like about paper filigree is that it presents almost endless challenges, and I like challenges :) In this project the poppy centers were a challenge, at least to me. Just to remind you, this is the second part of a three-part tutorial on making quilled poppies: Instructions for making the petals; How to make the centers and assemble the flowers; Making the foliage and the dandelion. Flower centers To make each poppy center, you'll need a 12''-long (30cm) black strip. 1. Make a tight roll and then create a quilled hive or bell shape. This shape is often called a grape roll. Coat the inside of the shape with glue, spreading it on thick. 2. Cut a 1/16''-wide (1mm) strip of a very pale brown or pale yellow color. Glue three 1/2''-long (13mm) pieces of the strip criss-cross onto the grape roll. 3. Prepare two 3/8 x 2 inches (1 x 5 cm) black paper strips and glue a 1/16''-wide (1-1.5mm) yellow strip along the long edge of each. Let the glue dry, then cut a fringe starting from the yellow strip's side. 4. Wrap each bell in a fringe, so that the cuts point in a direction opposite to the bell's top (criss-crossed strips). 5. Bend the fringe all the way up. Now it surrounds the bell shape and forms a kind of a cup around it. Poppy flowers Now, let's put everything together and create a finished poppy flower. 1. Place two of your quilled petals at an angle to the surface, opposite each other. To keep the petals tilted, I just propped them against quilling elements that I haven't used in this project. 2. Apply a small amount of glue on the down side of another two petals and gently put them over the first pair. Let the glue dry. 3. Finally, attach a flower center to the flower. Repeat steps 1-3 for the other poppy. The bud For the bud (it can be seen in Part 1 of the series), use three eye shapes, one red and two green, made from 6''-long (15cm) strips.

February 11, 2018 by Nicole Collins We're breaking out the sewing machine today, guys! Quick story...I used to have this manager that every time someone said "so" or "so what", he'd say "sew buttons". This was 100% of the time. This was also the same manager that would come up with random words of the day like "meow" or "watermelon", and we were challenged to hide these words in conversations with customers. For example, "I love watermelon" would be a fail. He was looking for usage like "ok,
