When I first saw this model, without knowing how it was called , I thought it was a kind of angel or a little bat. The designer, Paul Frasco, calls it "Little Devil". I think a nice name would also be "Bat-devil" ;-)).
Because I thought it could be an angel, it reminded me of the song of Elvis Presley "Devil in disguise".

У вас такое бывало, чтобы бумага спасала модель? я бы эту красавицу не собрала, если бы не сиреневая бумага. Если бы не сиреневая бумага, я бы эту бумагу растащила на тесты... но разве можно раздраконить драгоценную сиреневую бумагу? Этот долгострой лежал в состоянии 10 модулей несколько месяцев...
When I visited my dear friend Katharina, I discovered this flower and that's why this tessellation carries her name : "Kathy's flower" ;-)) The flowers are 3D, they rise out of the paper, so to speak.
The first folding steps also gave a nice result.
Folded from wrapping paper, hexagon about 33cm, grid 1:64
For Macro Mondays theme "Corner" ... origami has many corners, creases, and folds.
An alternative, more standard paper crane shot is in the comments. I liked the negative space in this one.
This is one of the last meeting-points where origami Santa's gather together and discuss about the world of "Humans" and how they maybe can change it.
A foldable kusudama-fire keeps them warm.
Did you know that Santa's don't need any sleep at all? I didn't ;-)

***Artist trading cards (or ATCs) are miniature works of art about the same size as modern trading cards baseball cards, or 2 1⁄2 by 3 1⁄2 inches (64 mm × 89 mm), small enough to fit inside standard card-collector pockets, sleeves or sheets.
The ATC movement developed out of the mail art movement and has its origins in Switzerland.
Cards are produced in various media, including dry media (pencils, pens, markers, etc.), wet media (watercolor, acrylic paints, etc.), paper media (in the form of collage, papercuts, found objects, etc.) or even metals or fiber.
The cards are usually traded or exchanged. When sold, they are usually referred to as art card editions and originals (ACEOs).(Wikipedia)

One more picture of curved Zipper corrugation
One sheet of tant paper, no glue
The same pattern as here flic.kr/p/D2iV3j or here flic.kr/p/CBLWM8
My fb page www.facebook.com/kusudamame
Opus T-19.
As said before, I wanted to see what the pattern would look, like if I did all the same folding steps of the "Kathy Flower" on one side. This is the result. The title is an anagram ;-)
I did the closest distance and then it turns out to be more related to the second one in the ""Collection ".
You can see phase 2 here.
Phase 1 looks like this, a whole field of "Swirling Stars".

The angles are 36˚, so this model is a real 'small stellated dodecahedron' en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_stellated_dodecahedron
slightly other (bit stronger) assembly mechanisms are possible for this unit, but they eliminate the color change at the peaks.
You know I'm sort of mad on spirals over the last time. I search new forms, that can be folded with spirals... When I did this (
flic.kr/p/rTyvqK ), Daniel Kwan shown me his version of curved Spidrons flic.kr/p/59BHdi. I tried it. And to say the truth I didn't much like this exact form, because it hardly collapses. It's not about the paper that rips, it's about the geometry. So I made my own version of this 'symmetry' with my curves. Here's one of the examples, there are many possible. My version is fully collapsible.
One sheet of Tant paper, about 14cm in diameter when unfolded and 5 cm when collapsed. Very playable model.
The name is Triton (A)

These two models are also my variations of "Clown mask 2" by Hideo Komatsu.

The last fold in the middle of the starflowers from "Yellow and you get "Blue" with stars. Now this tessellation is finished ;-))
It is a bigger version of the "Ice-flower" molecule.
This pattern is also related to "Purple".

I really like this design because of the versatility with the tail. Not sure I've done it justice yet but am having fun working on it.
I started to fold the "Face_pattern" with elephant hide, just for an experiment to see how it would look like with this paper. To my surprise it didn't stay flat, but started to curl and in the middle a bowl arose (photo left).
I stopped folding and only made a few, already existing, creases stronger on the back (right photo), so it would maintain it's new shape even more.
A path of hexagons and triangles ;-)) Folding a new tessellation.

These are very simple flowers folded from pentagons and dedicated to Archana, the folding mathematician from India whom I know only from internet... :)
I tried to search if such flower was already created, and I really found some similarly looking models but all were different in some details. But I know, there could easily be the very same model already existing. What I like about those is paper effectivity - with the starting size of pentagon fitting into 5 cm square, the flower fits into square a bit bigger than 3 cm (size of its side). I like also back side of the model, I will try to show you the photo in the comment. And that it could be very easily attached to the stem. These on the picture are not glued to the green part, but they hold really well.
Detail from an installation of about 60 sculptures that are suspended from the ceiling at Gallery 4A, Sydney.
They are made from various types of paper, including shredded documents from my local council as well as fabric, thread, wire, plant materials, and latex surgical gloves.
I like to fold several things, also models of Santa. So when ever I see one, I try to get the diagrams so I can fold it and add it to my collection. If you want to have a look.

Folded from triangle ( divide a square with the diagonal).
I made a little present, two pairs of origami earrings, for my niece because she is having her birthday today. The first one you can see here above and is folded from one little square of Washi paper (4,5x4,5cm). The finished model size is 2,5cm.
It's a traditional origami model, called Tato. When you fold it bigger, you can put something inside.
You can see the other pair of earrings here.
Tissue-foil paper. Folded from CP. This one is different from the original (a koi) as I might have folded something differently by accident.
Preparing an other tessellation and suddenly I saw eyes, so I used the exciting creases trying to make an origami face.
Now I have taken a photo, I will unfold the face and continu to make the new tessellation ;-)

En esta figura he tratado de usar una base muy simple y centrarme más en modelar. El papel era algo grueso tal vez.

The etherial Chelone, the oldest member of Cirr-cus, seems to be everywhere and nowhere. But where she has been the flowers begin to bloom. And when the sun sparkles on her carapace it looks like you could catch a glimpse of the whole universe ^-^
The paper isTerry's Tissuefoilpaper ^-^
Preparing a new tessellation using (again) hexagons ;-) and I created this pattern. It's the first stage.
What you see is the negative of the original photo and I'm surprised to see how good you can see the creases and the layers of paper below. Looks like a blueprint ;-))
You can see next stage "Two" here.
And the finished model "Golden" here.
