Haha! That’s funny Lorenzo. I can see your POV re: the aesthetics of this paper…
Maybe it just becomes practice paper! Also —- what you say about creating chaos with the pattern reminds me (very tangentially) of what Edwin Corrie said to me at BOS in Colchester in Sept last year. I had just learnt a rabbit model of his, from another convention attendee, and i was showing it to him saying that i liked the model a lot. I’d made it from kami and so the rabbit was color & white —- in all the wrong way. He looked at the model and suggested that i make the model with single color paper, esp since the color (from duo) wasn’t helping the rabbit model any. It’s something i think of a lot now.

It’s a paper that, in my view, might be suitable for patchwork or various coverings (obviously in larger sizes), but origami introduces so many ‘distortions’ to the pattern that it just creates chaos. I was wondering, in fact, whether, for example, Tuttle ever gave this any thought when deciding to put this stuff on the market, or whether it’s just me who finds it useless (and even close to awful). Ciao, Lorenzo
