Basket of Fruit


The paper used during folding completely defines what this piece becomes.  Here, by using red paper with black spots, the piece becomes a strawberry;  the green back-color of the paper lends itself well to the leaves.  If I had used blue paper with a black back-color, it would look more like a blueberry.  And if I had used red paper with circular patterns, it would look similar to a raspberry.  We can make larger fruit too, like apples, oranges, and pineapples, by using larger pieces of paper.  It's amazing how we can make most origami fruit using one folding pattern!
