Has anyone ever seen a pattern like this? I got the pictures from a site I can't remember, there wasn't a pattern, just pictures from a 2005 magazine from a quilt show in Canberra, Australia. My DD is an art teacher & each Christmas teaches her kids how to fold paper cranes & decorate a Christmas tree in their room at school. She also went to Japan a few years ago on an art teacher exchange trip. I would love to make her a quilt like this. I may have to attempt to make a pattern, but I don't know if I am up to it! Maybe some of our Australian quilters have seen the magazine. Sorry this is so long.

Oh I really like that!

Try googling "Origami Quilts". I know I've seen a pattern (paper pieced) but can't remember where. You could also google paper pieced quilts. If I find it I'll let you know-I do love the pattern.

I found it!

I've never seen that before! I used to teach my 4th grade students how to make paper cranes after I had read the book, Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes. They got addicted!! I had paper cranes hanging everywhere in my classroom!!! :lol:

Beautiful!!!

Thank you so much! I have googled many different things, but didn't come up with it. I will let you know if I need you to get it for me. Thanks again!!!
