I am trying to make a "girl in a long sleeved kimono". First you make the girl in the kimono then just glue it to a paper to make a bookmark. I've gotten pretty far, but I am stuck for making the sleeves! HELP!

I'd be glad to help, and I'm sure others would also, but we need to know a little more about your problem. Some context.

Is this a model you're talking about, by a particular author? Or is it just a subject you would like help designing?

I think I know how you may be making this, so if you are, there does seem to be a way: Pleat the upper part of the paper twice (one on top of the other) long enough so you can spread the edge of the paper inwards. If you like, you can trim it to make it easier. This means that you will need to make the Kimono part bigger.

If you can give us a Crease Pattern or a picture of the "Girl in Kimono" itself, then we could help better.


(P.S sorry that I haven't come on all that much; i haven't navigated to the forum in a while)
