Off to find a dollar bill.....

Holy Crap. This seems almost impossible! I may have to try this one with a perfectly proportioned piece of plain paper first. With the print on the bill, it's really hard to see the creases..... I shall not be discouraged..... Originally Posted by Susan Otcenas

Fortunately, no one in the shipping department cares about Origami. Originally Posted by SadieKate

LOL, I have a rather bright kid who taught himself to fold before he could read. He's now a rather advanced folder to put it mildly, studying the mathematics of origami design on the side at engineering school. Needless to say, we have boxes of origami everywhere.
