I am making a quilt for someone that LOVES origami and came across some tutorials for fabric origami flowers. Here is one of the tutorials I saw that works well for my project:

What I would like to do is to use this as the center of a flower block in place of the yo-yo it calls for. This is the pattern I am using:

I was wondering if anyone has used these types of blocks in a quilt and how it handles in the wash. I am making a lap quilt, not a wall hanging, so I'm sure it will need more frequent washing. I plan to finish up my sample and wash it, but curious how it handles over time.
Anyone try fabric origami in a quilt before and care to chime in? Any suggestions/lessons learned?
Thanks
