The Art of Paper Folding

I have always been a fan of Origami ever since I was in middle school and my parents took me to meet a Japanese exchange student. The only thing I remember about her was that she taught us how to make a crane. I was really excited by it so that same year when my parents left us with our Great Aunt Thelma to go to Ashland and watch Shakespeare, they got me a book about Origami as my souvenir. I love that book…I still have it.
These days I’m into making Origami decorations. I like to make Origami quilts:

Also, when I started making lucet and kumihimo demos for Dad’s website and I got bit by the video-making bug, I made a series of how-to videos for some of my favorite Origami folding projects.
