Sakura Star (Ali Bahmani): Daffodil Shaping

Designer: 
Bahmani, Ali
Folder: 
Adams, Sara

Paper: pentagon from a 15cm square of yellow pearlized paper
Model: diameter of 7cm, height of 1.75cm

Ali Bahmani contacted me a couple of days ago and yesterday sent me some of his diagrams. Amazing work!
I decided to fold his Sakura Star. I initially wanted to replicate one of his suggested variations, but while folding saw a daffodil in there. So I decided to tickle it out a little more by shaping the petals a bit more like those of a daffodil.

Assia sent me a signed copy of her book, and along with it some extra long strips of paper. This morning I folded the first one into a curlicue - fantastic!
