$ Flower

A dollar bill produces a model 100mm long with a bloom of 40mm diameter. The bloom is adapted from Herman

Lau’s Flower-in-a-Pot. That bloom can also be used here, resulting in a shorter stem and a smaller bloom

diameter (but with 8 petals, not 6).

4. Valley-fold and

unfold halfway to C.

Turn over.

1. Valley-crease at

quarters. Turn over.

2. Pivot at A, bring B

to 1/4 line, marking

only at C.

3. Valley-fold and

unfold at C.

1/2

5. Swing in sides.

6. Swing up on

existing crease.

7. Valley and unfold

through all layers of

the upper flap. Unfold

completely. Rotate

half turn. Turn over.

8. Valley on existing

creases, extending to

edges.

9. Use existing valley-

creases to squeeze in

mountain-fold angle

bisectors.

Repeat on left.

10. Sink hexagonally

halfway. (Open out

to find landmarks.)

Alternate method, using

Lau’s 8-petalled flower:

1. Crease at quarters.

2. Water-bomb base at

one end.

3. Squash the 4

triangular flaps of the

water-bomb base: two

loose flaps in front, two

flaps attached to the

rest of the bill in back.

4. Octagonally sink tip

halfway.

11. Mountain-fold

entire top and unfold.

12. Gather up 4 edges

perpendicularly.

13. Wrap edges.

Reverse below valley-

fold (where indicated).

Entire bottom of bill

swings behind and up.

15. Note that the

sunken assembly has

remained fixed. Swing

one flap to the left.

14. Continue collasping

on existing creases.

1/2

15-17

16. Mountain-fold on

existing crease,

tucking inside.

17. Swing flap back

to the right. Repeat

15-17 on left. Rotate

half-turn.

18. Add mountain-

creases halfway

between existing

valleys. Inner ones

don’t have to go all

the way up.

19. Crease forwards

and backwards. Make

the longer fold first, then

use it to help locate the

shorter.

20 Add more creases.

Turn over.

21. Crease angle-

bisector, to center-line.

Repeat on right.

22. Fold model in half,

swinging 2 small flaps

to the left behind at the

top.

23. Outside crimp.

Mountain-folds exist,

valley-folds are new.

24-26

24. Lift one flap.

25. Pleat on existing

creases.

26. Swing flap back

down. Repeat 24-26

behind.

27. Sink long edge.

Closed-sink and keep

together at the top.

28. Spread pleats, reform creases from

18-20, Elias-stretching.

29. Closed sink

upper layer on

angle-bisector.

30. Roll and

tuck inside

sink. Swing

flap down.

31. Closed-sink.

Not quite an

angle-bisector.

33. Outside reverse fold the leaf (valley is

single-ply, mountain on dotted line). At the

same time, mountain the stem in quarters,

forming a tube. Where leaf joins stem, form

tiny gussets to avoid tearing.

Tuck loose paper at tip of leaf inside, behind

the sink from step 31. Curve and shape leaf.

32. Mountain a single

ply, flush with sink.

Swing flap back up.

Rabbit ear stem where it joins the bloom.

$ Flower (continued)

34. This is the view between the

two thinnest petals. Valley and

mountain the lower corners of the

4 “loose” petals, locking the base

of the bloom.

35. Reverse-fold top edges of all

6 petals (about 1/3 of the angle).

Don’t flatten.

36. View from above the bloom. Pull

down tips of petals, while gently

flattening the center.

37. This is a single petal. Open and round

the sides of the petal, and mountain the

tip behind. Flatten the underside of the

petal, especially the thick petals adjoining

the stem.

38. Finished. (Ok, so it’s a generous picture,

but you get the idea.)
