Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is the main difference between kirigami and origami?

Answer: In kirigami, you cut the paper as well as folding it. In origami, you fold the paper but don't cut it.

The Japanese word kiru means to cut, and gami means to fold. Florence Temko first used the word kirigami to describe the art of cut and folded paper in 1962.
2. What is stumpwork?

Answer: A raised form of embroidery.

Stumpwork was very popular in the 17th century. Stumpwork embroidery is usually created on one background, and then transferred to another.
3. Which of these items would you need in order to do Theorem Painting?

Answer: A set of stencils

Theorem painting, also called theorem stenciling, is done with a set of stencils. The resulting image has no breaks between the different painted sections. It was very popular in colonial America.
4. What is pinweaving?

Answer: Weaving in which the warp threads are held down by pins.

Pin weaving is an inexpensive and portable craft, done without a loom. You can weave ribbons, fabric strips, or other materials, as well as thread or yarn.
5. What is the term for the art of paper filigree?

Answer: Quilling

The craft of quilling is over 500 years old. Originally, the strips of paper were rolled on a quill (feather). Nowadays, there are inexpensive tools made just for this purpose.
6. What craft gets its name from the French word for "cutting out"?

Answer: Decoupage

Decoupage is the art of decorating an object with paper cutouts. It has been popular for centuries in Asia and Europe.
7. Which of the following crafts requires a hook?

Answer: Crochet

Rug hooking also requires a hook, but that would have been too easy.
8. What can you add to acrylic craft paint in order to paint on fabric if you do not have a special acrylic medium available?

Answer: Glycerol

It's better to use a good fabric paint in the first place. You can buy fabric paints online, and in some craft stores and fabric stores. SoSoft is a good brand.
9. When making candles, which method is safest for melting wax?

Answer: A double boiler

Never use any of the other methods, or allow the wax to come into direct contact with a heat source. Wax can catch fire. To use a double boiler, fill the bottom pot about 2/3 full. Put the wax in the top pot. Never leave melting wax unattended. Don't heat your wax above 140 degrees.
10. Which of the following is not an example of a traditional Native American craft?

Answer: Glass blowing

Traditional Native American beads were carved from shells, wood, animal bones, turquoise, and other available materials. European settlers brought glass beads to America, and they are now widely used by Native American artisans.
