Magnolias - New Origami Model

Today I folded some origami magnolias welcoming the Spring, and hoping that the warmer weather would bring some comfort and relief to the areas affected by the recent earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

The magnolias in the picture are my design. For each magnolia, I used two 6" (150 mm) squares of thin washi paper.
