Origami tessellations span the range from relaxingly repetitive to impossibly perplexing, especially when they are folded from crease patterns.
This crease pattern collection has 13 tessellations that cover that whole range while being foldable one twist at a time (none require precreasing, although it can help on a first attempt).
The dominant feature of this collection is extended symmetry applications on standard tilings and unusual arrangements of rhombus twists.
These tessellations were featured on the Gathering Folds Instagram page in the summer of 2023 and represent a small fraction of Madonna Yoder's total designs.
None of the patterns have links to video tutorials, while all link to a video of Madonna discussing the pattern and also to a list of suggested patterns to practice first.
The tessellations included are:
- Chinampas
- Satellites
- Wheelhouse
- Star Crossed
- Wagon Wheel
- Annuli
- Crown Jewels
- Bob's Diner
- Swarm
- Synergy
- Bubbles
- Shattered
- Stellar Cells
