> Hi all,
> I will be presenting an e-mail origami class that will start on 2 
> December. You will learn to create a 5 pointed star by first making a few 
> folds and then completing the project with one snip of your scissors.
> With e-mail classes you will receive an e-mail each day or two, which will 
> take you through the various steps of the project. You will also be able 
> to communicate with the instructor and with other class members via a 
> dedicated e-mail list.
> All you w            ill need is some rectangular copy or printer paper 
> and medium-sized scissors.
> Of course, once you know how to make this model, you could use any 
> coloured or textured paper to make your stars.
> I'd like to invite all members to try this class. No experience of paper 
> folding needed and you don't have to worry about the cutting either. You 
> are only going to make one snip and it doesn't have to be perfectly 
> straight.
> If you have never tried paper folding or origami, why not give this class 
> a go? You might be surprised at how much fun it can be to create shapes 
> and objects from a simple piece of paper!
> This is one of those projects where you do the steps of folding, then the 
> cut, and then, finally when you open your model, you will be surprised 
> with what you find.
> This will definitely be a good activity to do with the children and 
> hopefully just in time for the coming festive season.
> This model also comes with a little lesson on U.S. history, so don't miss 
> it.
> For new members, below you will find the basic class info as it appears on 
> the KK website.
> Go to http://www.krafterskorner.org
> Find the heading for "classes", and on the new page you can move to the 
> heading of "origami" or search for the word "origami".
> Follow the instructions from there and feel free to contact me for more 
> info or help, or you could ask any of the other members on or off list if 
> you need help signing up for a class.
> The closing date for sign up is 25 November, so please hurry on over and 
> sign up.
> I look forward to welcoming lots and lots of members.

> description: This class will be taught via an email list. It will teach 
> you how to make a 5-pointed flat star from one piece of standard-sized
