That’s it for another week.  As usual, be sure to visit and follow all of these awesome origami artists.

Also, just a heads up, I’ve got to do some major work to this site and I’m hoping to do it some time next week.  So if the site is down that’s why.  It shouldn’t take too long, hopefully not longer than a couple of days.
