Thanks for the guide, it was easy to follow 🙂
This worked really well.👍
Your guide was very easy to follow. I wasted a lot of time trying to do the swan on my own, hence the creases.
Great – thank you!
Thank you for simple, clear instruction with great diagrams.
Thank you so much. Loved making the swans… Lots of them ! The first instruction which tells you which color will be the dominant one was important for paper that’s coloured on both sides.
