Welsh Corgi
My awesome friend <3 came over today and surprised me with an origami book. She is doing some school project. Anyway, I made this Welsh Corgi from her book.

T-Rex
In my quest to not study for my upcoming test, here's a t-rex.
"It's not my fault that my arms are too short and my head is too big." D: Where was that from? All I remember is a weird family in the future of an animated film. Actually, I think I remember the plot but not the name of the movie.

Ball module
One of my club members mentioned something about having an origami that was made out of the colors of the rainbow. Since I remembered I had small pieces of origami paper, I made this 30-piece module for her. It's very colorful. I love it.
Thirty pieces. I used 15 different paper patterns, 2 of each.
Starting the assembly. I love making this because putting it together is like making a 3D puzzle.
The colorful inside. The designs on the paper were awesome, but unfortunately, you can't really see it well from the outside.
And the final product. So colorful.
Magic Rose Box
I was pretty excited when I found this. It's a box that can turn into a rose and vice versa. The pieces form an origami module. The first one is a big one using standard size origami paper. I used the small pieces of origami paper that my friend gave me as a present. It has some multicolored patterns.

Sorry about the flip. The picture is uploading weird.
Panda
Here's my attempt at a Tare Panda. Now it just looks like a cute panda. He hangs off of my laptop screen, staring at me. Originally, I think the instructions had him hanging off of a glass cup.

Strip Origami
Recently, I believe it was our last meeting, one of our members found something online that I asked her to teach us. This was strip origami, involving four strips of paper. We learned how to do a nifty star design. I went home and made some of my own variations with some paper origami strips that a friend gave me as a present a long time ago.
You can see how big the stars were by comparison with the quarter in the picture below.
Dragon
Here's a dragon origami. I find most of these instructions online as I did this one. We also have books for the club with more simple origami. I'll try to get some pictures of those and get them posted. I didn't really think to take pictures of them. We will teach most of these designs to club members/try to figure these out as a club. Some of the more complicated designs like Yoda I did myself. People who want to join our club in no way have to originally know how to fold origami. Beginners are welcome!
