[MrEllinas21]

if i want to vary it.I have to crease to the center again the crease you've made at 2:40 and make a 32 division grid?

[AdamsSara]

@MrEllinas21 What do you mean by vary? If you want more stages, please check happyfolding(dot)com and search for "clover folding". In the page to the 7-stage tessellations there's some advice on how to proceed.

[julianrafael99]

how do you make it bigger ive made today and i want to make one bigger

[AdamsSara]

@julianrafael99 I'll probably post a video on how to make more levels. I've gotten so many queries on this! I'm not sure when, though.

[kindercollecter2]

I can't see anything you do from 19:58 to 20:10 please explain closer so I can SEE it because the squares are so small you don't know which one you are talking about or folding, and when making the 16x16 grid that way they are not equal which i found surprising coming from you who usually likes everything to be very precise

[AdamsSara]

@kindercollecter2 I'm just explaining in that step. Continue watching and check where I add creases if that's better to see. I basically always fold my blintz grids like that and get great precision with it. I guess it's about practice, not the technique itself.

i'm watching this and i'm like "WTF? where did those dotted lines come from :O"

[snowypetrel]

A flat sheet of paper is a beautiful thing.

[TheGaintking5]

AdamSara, it sure took you long for the drawing creases

[lamyeenam]

What's the difference of the two vids

[BibsyP]

That was so hard. I am running before I can walk I think.

I bought Eric Gjerde book. Makes so little sense. I need to see demonstrations. Your demos help very much to understand what he is talking about.

{-.-} Im soooo mad right now... I made it to 24:18 and my uncel spilled coffé over it -.-

[sonichaven]

[MsYoungmoney2]

[Anyjupiter]

This video I inspired me again. But every time I see if you make a new video I cry because my wish you could make more videos ;(  Cullen ;(

[Oridom66]
