Try cutting a hexagon from a 15 cm square to get a model with a diameter of about 10cm.
I do not sell folded models.

Dear Sara:

What a beautifully folded model. I must say that Francesco is indeed one of my favorite creators!

Just a thought ... I printed out Francesco's CP for the Infinity Star and I must say I am stumped at trying to find reference points for the folds. Maybe in the future do you think you may address how to understand a CP such as this?

I will be diligent however, and possibly I will grasp the concept. Any help would be appreciated.

As always thank you for all you do for the Origami World :-)

Best to you,

Keep your fingers crossed that I'll record a video and edit it on Saturday. I think I came up with a nice sequence that makes all the references super easy to find. Actually, I've got two different ways, still thinking about whether I should present both. We'll see how it goes!
