Gathering Folds Gallery
Every piece here was designed and folded by Madonna Yoder (Gathering Folds) by hand - yes, including the background grid!
These origami tessellations are folded from a single sheet of paper with repeating geometric elements by using twists connected by pleats in structures called tilings.
These tessellations are organized by tiling so you can see the wide variety of possibilities in each structure.
If you'd like to learn more about each structure, sign up for my Tessellations by Tiles course here!
