Orchid Patricia Crawford
JC Nolan (dgrms.)
Complex ©1973 - USA
Crawford is a true luminary in the history of origami who 40 years ago was creating amazing color-change works such as her Unicorn, Full-Rigged Ship and Baby
Grand Piano. Most of the best of her work was published in the later books of Robert Harbin yet this model was never reproduced or published. As curator of
her collection of work I took on the task 15 years ago of making sure that her work was not lost to history and this was one of the first models I undertook to restore.
Unfortunately, it turned out to be a massive challenge and was the first (and only, so far) model in her catalog to stump me. Working on it off and on the past 5
years I remained stumped over the proportions of the lower petals. It was not until the advent of social-media/zoom that I was able to reach out to the global
origami hive-mind and find the answer. So here, published for the first time is what I consider to be Crawford’s true magn
magnum-opus,
um-opus, her color-change orchid.
So why, if this model isis so amazing, was it never published? Answer – BECAUSE IT’S REALLY CHALLENGING! Both to diagram and to fold, even with these
enhanced instructions. For that reason, to help optimize the chance for success for all folders who attempt it, in these diagrams I’ve utilized a LOT more text descrip-
descrip
tion than I usually do. I’ve also created photo-step folds, alte
alternate
rnate detail paths in the diagrams and a more liberal finish, honoring the original design of the work.
So it ain’t easy, however it’s not hard, just odd and with repeat foldings the unusual sequences become far straight-forward. As with other Crawford models, after
folding it multiple times the whole process makes much more sense and is eas easyy to execute.
For first a
attempts
ttempts I recommend folding from a large square of Japanese or American foil – even multiple sheets taped together. Complex / a 30” sheet produces
a model ~12” wide with ~3” column.

We now go through the process of
fan-pleating the model down to 16ths.
Depending on the thickness of the paper
this can become somewhat untenable.

with regard to these steps. I’ve found the

Now we will spread-squash the middle three points on each side and fold the resultant flattened area flat by pleat-sinking the
paper as we go. This can be relatively challenging as most of the creases for the refolding are not yet in place and will have to
be stated by hand as you go. To execute pinch the top 3 layers with one hand and anchor the bottom 3 with your other hand
(indicated by circles) so that the middle 3 points remain free — then pull upward flattening out the 3 points. Don’t crease or
flatten out the lower portion, just open up as needed to execute the stretch. To fold back up you will have to lay in the creases
in place by hand matching the map, as indicated in the 3d diagram. For extra help, photo step-folds and additional resources
are available at creatingorigami.com/diagrams/orchid.html.

Now reverse fold the outer layers Rotate 180 degrees and reverse fold

Now the real fun starts with the 2nd of three very unusual folds in this model.... reverse fold as far down as the paper will
allow. If the flap does not come down all the way then it’s likely you got the wrong points back on the spread-squash /
pleating sequence. Once the reverse fold is completed, note that the horizontal crease is not truly horizontal, then perform
a wrap of the entire structure by pulling out the hidden paper, opening it out and refolding on the same creases with the
white layer outside. This is not quite as tricky as it seems but may take a few attempts to master. Two paths are shown
here in the diagrams: a detailed one below and more concise one above, just follow the arrows of choice. Additional help
is available in the photo step-folds online at creatingorigami.com/diagrams/orchid.html.
Interim steps for the above sequence being shown here. Carefully unfold the paper and fold back up on existing creases so
that the white area is now outside and the colored hidden inside. Note that there is a little jog in the direction of the main
mountain fold. Note also that you will need to roll the paper at the tips as you fold to get everything to settle into place.

Fold and unfold to precrease, then fold in on the creases Reverse fold the to thin the next set of

cause some binding in the second set of petals if not done right,
but can be futzed later if necessary - just easier if you nail it here.
Adding precreases for the coming crimps, fold the flap left, lining up the crease with the hidden
layers inside. The diagonal crease on top will line up with the center of the model, but the back
of the flap does not have a crease so it’s not much help. These folds will be a little messy due to
all the layers, but don’t worry as you’ll be able to clean it all up in the subsequent steps.
Unfold and crimp on the creases cleaning up any previous messiness that happened in the previous steps. Then, carefully
fold the large, thick flap upward and open up the side petals with two squash folds. The internal, colored flap goes to the
top so you have a double layer at the top. This step is not shown in photo step-folds but looking at the original Alice Grey
diagrams (in the Appendix/online) may be helpful (or not). At this point we really start to sculpt the model and the folder
may choose to adjust things to their own taste moving forward, for example the location of this fold can be adjusted higher
or lower to affect resulting flowers overall proportions and feel.

A lot can be left to the imagination here
and various possibilities (including
Crawford’s original design) are below.

At this point in the original diagrams very little information
was given to the final shaping so feel free to sculpt as you
desire, creating your own invention by pushing sides of
column inward while also curling the lip of the column
outward - curling / opening petals, positioning them as
desired. By rolling the colored paper, doing wraps or other
inventions you can have white leaves, colored leaves or
leaves with a stripe; convex or concave; tapered at bottom
or not. Note also another earlier version I did with horn tips
(anther cap), you could also create “pods” at the end of
lower petals... all sorts of variations possible. By opening
the center and/or leaving the stamen flap extended you can
have more complex stamen - the possibilities are endless,
there is lots of paper to work with. Enjoy!
I first saw Patricia Crawford’s unpublished origami orchid in 1978 during my first visit to Lillian Oppenheimer’s Origami Center of
America at 71 West 11th Street in New York City. "What took you so long?" Lillian said. She wondered how someone so passionate
about origami had not come to visit sooner. She led me down the hall into her apartment, and it was a Wizard of OZ moment, New
York’s grimy gray changed miraculously into the colorful world of origami: the bright papers, cheerful books, and wondrous origami
models that she had folded or collected from all over the world.
Lillian spoke of her experiences getting to know the many origami artists who had come to visit, and of all them, none were dearer
than Patricia Crawford. “You can count the number of notable women origami designers on one hand; Patricia is on par with the
best of them!” Handing a shoebox to me, she invited me to have a look inside. “These are some of Patricia’s models; some are
unpublished.” There was a grand piano, a bud vase with roses on-stem, a log with a squirrel, a ship with tall color-changed sails,
and there was a Cattleya orchid. Most of the models were folded from colorful, thin foil paper, a popular origami choice at the time,
and nearly a necessity for folding complex models.
I marveled at them all, but the orchid impressed me the most. It was folded from a purplish foil and included a full, showy lip. I had
designed some origami orchids, but I resorted to a 1:2 rectangle to achieve the distinctive lip of a Cattleya while including all of the
remaining petals and sepals. Doing so from an uncut square had eluded me. Confronted with Patricia’s solution, I just had to learn
it. Then Lillian broke my spirit:—“There are no diagrams.”
Patricia’s orchid was inspiration enough for me to revisit my approach. When I was finally successful, I named that for my sister, “An
Orchid Susie”. Since I had only seen Patricia’s model once, and with no photos for reference, I never knew if my orchid folded from
a square was similar, or in any way close to Patricia’s method. Now, thanks to J. C. Nolan’s efforts, we may all see the secret behind
the curtain and bring back this landmark in origami design, enhancing Ms. Crawford’s wonderful legacy.

using a design of Qubes which were relatively difficult to
make. In 2016 David Mitchell realised that it was possible to
make a Qube that was much easier to fold but would build
into a Sierpinski Pyramid in the same way. This Qube is
actually only three quarters of a cube. David Mitchell
developed it from his existing Half Cube design by the
addition of a fourth, very simple, module. All three designs,
the Half Cube, the Three Quarter Cube (or Qube) and the
Sierpinski Pyramid are elegant mathematical models that
are easy to fold and assemble. In presenting these diagrams
we hope that they will prove useful to teachers of
mathematics everywhere.

Making the Sierpinski Pyramid
The Sierpinski Pyramid is built by combining iterations of
Qubes (Three Quarter Cubes) of different sizes, each
succeeding iteration being one eighth the volume of the
one before. There is no theoretical limit to the number of
iterations that can be achieved but in practice it is difficult
to make a Sierpinski Pyramid with more than three or four
iterations unless you begin with really large paper.

need to be glued together.
