Origami Fabric Stars


These little guys start out as -5- 2" squares of fabric. When they are folded, unfolded, then folded again, they become little stars. Fun little stars...

Fall Festival - October 2 in Elgin, NE











The annual craft fair is coming up on October 2, 2010. Getting ready for it every year is always poetry in procrastination. After the Fall Festival I have the best intentions to get with the program right away and decide what I am going to do. After that insanity passes, and the reality of the busy holiday season hits, that need to get ready goes away. This year is no exception to the rule. A few weeks ago I decided to make pumpkins and snowmen and then saw some star origami ornaments that looked pretty interesting. Thus, I began the race to get as much done as I can in the shortest amount of time imagineable. The annual preparation for the Fall Festival...never changes.




Here are some of the pieces that will be coming with me. After this post, I have a date with my sewing machine to make the hat I need for my little snowman and then start another...




Enjoy the preview!
