The paper will be glued at its tip and the coil will then be shaped, the shaped coils will then be arranged to form flowers, leaves, and other ornamental patterns that can also be similar to ironwork; this is the basic way on how to do quilling Nowadays, paper quilling is still alive and well. People who practice this kind of artwork are called "quillers". Quillers teach young ladies on how to do quilling, as a part of their income, hobby, interest, or even do this for leisure.
