Half square triangles I started for a baby quilt; scratched for something a little quicker (pressed for time)
Skill Builder Sampler block #30
Triangles! The bias edges were a little trickier to handle than I expected, but not too bad.
Apple core block is almost done, just need to get some starch and finish it up.

Note to photographer: When they are feeding on flowers, their wings are held vertically and constantly vibrate!

Here it is Jun Maekawa's n°11/b or to better explain it is an add to model n°11 (third model in second chapter of Jun Maekawa's Genuine Origami). There is only the let's say "CP"... and a drawing showing the result... only 7 folds but made me crazy... not because there is a real difficulty in it, but because had no idea of what a tridacna is... actually architects living in Italy closed to the mountains are not really requested to know what a tridacna is... since I'm trained in recognizing and knowing symbols and sincetriquetra is the symbol of Sicily... it was obvious to me that the "tridacna" was the symbol of some of a mystical and mysterious oriental religion, and I've obviously trying to fold it... and here's the problem: it isn't... much less romantically tridacna is just a giant clam... oriental... that was true. Anyway, once it is clear to you what a tridacna is, it'll be really really easy to fold it... and since it is completly foldable you can also use it as an envelope... tridacna can also make pearls from time to time... so you can insert a shiny white paper in it making your message "precious". I really loved this model... Jun Maekawa use it to teach the half-closed (or half-open) fold... and as usual provides interesting informations about the method.

This is another Japanese Tangam which I just origaminize. 4 of the 7 Puzzle pieces or Tans are from the Traditional Tangram set - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/7167846697/
The Trapezium shape piece is just a slight modification of an almost similar piece in the Chie No Ita Tangram set - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/7167848141/in/photostr...
The odd-shaped piece is similar to one of the puzzle pieces in the "T Puzzle Dissection" but you need a larger paper and do some modifications - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/7341210208/
Diagrams for all the above mentioned pieces are posted at my new website, kindly hosted by Nick Robinson and generously sponsored by Dennis Walker. - www.nickrobinson.info/clients/owrigami/

There are many puzzle shapes to form but I have only added just a few. There is an image of this Whiskey puzzle as well as some of the puzzle shapes here - webapp1.dlib.indiana.edu/images/item.htm?id=http://purl.d...

Ethne asked for triangle blocks inspired by the illustrations of Leah Duncan.
The block is 10" wide and 9" high. I used batik scraps and Kona Pepper for this triangle.
The Bermuda Triangle is a region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean in which ships, planes, and people are alleged to have mysteriously vanished. Is it fact or a figment of our imaginations?

Artist's Biography
Stuart Allen is a sculptor and photographer. He grew up in Kansas where he learned to appreciate open space and a steady breeze. Stuart moved to California in 1994 after studying architecture at Kansas University and graduating from the photography and video department of the Kansas City Art Institute. He lives and works in Woodland, California with his wife Kelly Lyons and their Plott Hound Enzo.
Allen has shown photographs and sculptural kites in galleries and museums throughout the U.S. and abroad. His artwork is represented by the Michael Himovitz Gallery in Sacramento, the Cecile Moochnek Gallery in Berkeley, the SFMOMA Rental Gallery in San Francisco, and Artsource, a San Francisco based consulting firm.
Stuart Allen's sculptural forms are a hybrid of kite and sailing vessel designs. Historically, sails have literally propelled the flow of ideas, individuals and merchandise across borders. Kites fly freely in a realm not bound by political boundaries. Ancient cultures' kite-making celebrations bring together entire neighborhoods to construct and fly delicate and elaborate objects. Allen's expertly crafted works suggest the notion of exchange, trade, partnership and alliance. The title of this six-piece work (38 degree 53'N/77 degree 02'W-45 degree 24'N/75 degree) references the latitude and longitude of Washington DC and Ottawa.

D made this for me for the challenge out of magna-tiles - best toy ever for a creative 3-year-old. They're much less frustrating than legos.

Folded from 3 pieces of 4x1 rectangles. My modification is the top-right one which is folded from 3x1 rectangles. Except for the different dimensions, all the folds are the same. Thanks Nick.
I saw this sign on the way into work today, and was confused by it. It was on a small truck by Paddington station, and seems to be warning that those preaching salvation may be crushed...
The model is derived from the the Octagon Cross Module, converted to form the Pentagon Cross module. The angle in step 4 [step 7] of Dirk Eisner's Octagon Cross Module is changed to 54 degrees - www.flickr.com/photos/eisfold/9419596217/
The CP for obtaining the angle is posted here - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/9889334753/
The model is from 5 shades of brown rectangle Kami of 2x1 dimension. [15cm x 7.5cm] They are first assembled and simple mountain and valley folds plus a colour change are then applied to each of the 5 arms.
There are many variations, just like the Coasters derived from the Triangle Cross modules and the Hexagon Cross modules. Many thanks to Dirk Eisner and Hans-Werner Guth for collaborating with me.
