Origami Paper Stars
As some of you know I love Origami and I couldn't resist
making these stars out of Christmas Wrapping Paper.
Stewart was a s patient as ever and helped me fold,
point after point and I put them together.
At Knit Wits I sold them for Charity.
I was also introducing the to see the response!
They were well received and I showed several
visitors how to make them.
I explain the measurements and
if you want to make them, visit the
You Tube video on my tech site

Origami Colour Firework
I persevered with the origami firework.
These units start at a 16cm square which made the difference
for holding and as you can see
I made it in another colour combination.
I say I, Stewart got intrigued and helped fold the
units so far and then let me do the fiddly bits.
He then shuffled and folded the ends in while
I held it!
A two person task!!!!!
It starts looking like the top and then you twist it
inside itself and you get to the next photograph.
Due to this being a moveable origami it
looks better in film so watch
the film I put on a previous post by clicking

Origami Firework
Sometimes I like to set myself a challenge!
I have never really been that good at origami but I do
folded patchwork.
While researching folded papers I came across this......
"An Origami Firework",
Well! I just had to have a go.
What seem hours later after putting all the little
units together I finally and I mean finally,
got it to a stage where I could manipulate the flower,
I mean firework and what happened?
it started to fall apart and the more I tried to put
it together the more creases appeared.
All I can say watch the video and enjoy,
if you are going to make it I would try a larger
square to begin with!
I will have another go at this myself again
with a larger starting square and I will show you the results.
Enjoy this weekend project!!!!
