Inside-Out Flowers
| Sometimes people have trouble following instructions to make Inside-out
Flowers beyond step 5. The trick of Inside-out Flowers is to always fold the sides
up along the fold lines shown in step 5. I think an easier way to visualize what needs to
be done might be as follows : Once you have finished step 5 lay the square out as shown
in step 5. Fold opposite sides of the square up as shown . |
 |
| Then fold the remaining sides towards the middle and tack where the pin is as shown ------> |
 |
| Flip the side triangles from the back and your square should now have the 'ears' as shown. To improve the appearance of your flowers finger press these ears first one direction (ie. to the left) and then the other. Then flatten them as show in figure 8 in the book and follow the rest of the book's instructions. |
