Reflexion
A simple rectangle? Hardly! This lovely Iris Folding design brings double the fun, with 2 irises! ;)

I'd been wanted to try some iris folding with quilt fabric and chose this design to try it with.
I ended up with a very heavy card :-) that was rather thick in the middle, but I liked the look of the fabric and will do it again with a simpler design.
I cut my rectangle from a coordinating cardstock and ironed the folds into the fabric, after first spraying with a fabric sizing (this made the folds much sharper).
I constructed the design in the normal way, using some of the frame paper for the "eyes", and attaching it to a card with strong DST in the "thick" center, and silicone gel elsewhere so it was raised up on the edges-this made everything appear level.
Outlined the rectangle with a peel-off border and added a peel-off sentiment and some "pearls". This is a beautiful, intricate folding design.
