The Origami Forum

...from the book "Kusudama Origami" by Tomoko Fuse, page 48.

I have successfully made some of the easier models in this book, but I think there is a missing step or an incorrect drawing on this page.

I am pretty sure that step 8 can not follow from step 7, simply because of the color clues. By step 9 the paper has been folded in such a way that it has a 4-fold symmetry, which could be helpful in intuiting what has to be done.

I could provide an image of page 48, if someone would tell me how.

Please post an image of the step you are referring to.

I look forward to working with you to resolve the issue

I don't see how to provide an attachment, but I will embed a link to the image in this message:

Sorry Christian; it seems like an appropriate application of the "fair-use" principle to put a link to a page showing the steps I am struggling with. I hope this incomplete piece is OK with you.

the diagrams are correct, I assume that your didn't see where the arrow is leading to



this is the way

Yes, thank you very much!

I must say that I now I see how to achieve the fold, I still think the directions are very misleading.
