Quilling Inspirations – A selection of works by Fellows of the Quilling Guild
Dates: Wednesday 24th June – Saturday 4th July 2026.
This exhibition presents a selection of work by Fellows of the Quilling Guild, offering a friendly introduction to what can be achieved using the technique of quilling. The display brings together a mix of simple and more detailed pieces, showing the precision and considered design that can be achieved with rolled paper strips. While some works are small and straightforward, the overall aim is to inspire people who are new to quilling and to give a sense of the different directions the craft can take.
Quilling is an historical papercraft in which narrow strips of paper are rolled, shaped and glued to form decorative designs. It is thought to have originated in Europe during the Renaissance period (15th–16th century), where it was practised by nuns and monks, before becoming popular in Britain in the 18th century among ‘ladies of leisure’.
The Quilling Guild, formed in 1983, supports and promotes the craft through events, exhibitions and the sharing of knowledge among practitioners.
