Go

While you wait for the fabric to dry... Take a piece of square paper and fold your origami selection. This paper model serves many purposes: Use the paper model to guide you when folding fabric. The model serves as a visual reference to your printed instructions. It defines areas for embellishments, like beading or embroidery. The paper folds will help identify what will show and where.

And to finish the project


Note: all items shown are available in the workshop store.
  1. Remove stiffened fabric from the screen when dry.

  2. Iron. I use a high setting with steam. Fabrics will go limp when heat is applied. So lay on a flat surface to cool.

  3. Cut the fabric square using a rotary cutter and cutting mat. If you do not have a cutter, make a template from cardboard and trace with a pencil on to the backside of the fabric.

  4. Cut with scissors.

  5. Now just fold your origami selection, like the paper model and enjoy!

Tip: Draw the folding lines directly on your paper model. This will help you see the folds!
