NBG Program Meeting
on Zoom
Origami PocketFolds
with Laurel Herbeck
Saturday, September 19
1:00 – 3:00pm
Everyone on the Zoom Note List will receive the Zoom link
to attend the meeting; join the list here.
In this program we will explore two Origami Pocket Folds – the Pocket Envelope Fold and the V-fold. Both are made from a single piece of paper and can be used as book pages in a variety of ways. Laurel will demonstrate how to make the pockets and show some examples of ways they can be used in books. Available here are three handouts, one for each fold and one for the French Link Stitch used in one of her books.
Please have the following materials and tools ready for the activity:
Bone folder
Paper – copy paper, wrapping paper, lightweight painted paper such as Arches Text Wove, old maps or parchment papers. (Card stock is too heavy; consider anything that is origami-weight paper.) In the samples pictured Laurel used Arches Text Wove, copy paper, and Washi decorative papers.
Small pocket envelope: you will need a piece 4 ½” x 18″
Origami V-fold: you will need a piece 11″ x 17″
