PETAL the classic sequences in Origami

One of the classic sequences in origami . a petal involves folding several creases at the same time to produce a neat and unexpected result. While experienced folders can make a petal fold directly into the paper, it’s much easier if you add the necessary pre-creases first.

1- This example begins from a waterbomb base .fold the botton-left comer to the top comer.

2- Fold the top two shorter edges to the centre crease, then unfold back to step 1

3- You now have all the creases you need to make the petal fold. Squash the flap symmetrically in half.

4- Using the horizontal crease as a hinge, swing the lower point upwards. The lower raw edges will start to fold inwards.

5- Hers is the move in progress

6- And completed. Unfold and refold until you understand what is happening. If you do this to each of the flaps, you will form a frog base.
