I like to add a small fold when I send people something. So for my 10-year YouTube anniversary giveaway, I folded 50 butterflies (as there were 50 prizes). Only 49 butterflies are shown in this photo, simply because it was easier to fit 49 in the frame. :)
Paper: 40 cm square of Origamido paper
Model: 17 cm side length
Back in 2009, I folded a high density tiling of the Hydrangea displaying four blossoms and in 2013 one with six blossoms. This time round, I decided to step it up a further notch and folded nine blossoms! I see a pattern emerging - does this mean I'll fold an even larger tiling in 2021?
