This little card is indeed based on the ‘little’. The biggest flower here is about a 50p-sized coin. The petals are quite a challenge to do if you do not have small enough fingers. Luckily I have nimbler fingers and can manage them, but I do warn anybody wishing to attempt quilling at this scale. It is not easy. It is fiddly and will test anyone’s frustration tolerance. This activity can be a good ‘workout’ for those with patience problems. The visual rewards, however, once it is completed, is divine. (For me, anyway). A dream piece would be something bigger than A5 crammed with these delectable flowers. I wonder if I still have some time left before our rare British heatwave finally ebbs away into wet oblivion?
