See picture 1:

Note the angled edges and that i did not have all the ends meet in one spot.....this pix has the sparkly paper inserted for the center iris.....When you are finished folding, turn the piece over to the front and check to see if there are any gaps....if so, you have to gently peel off the layers to see where the gap is and fix it !!When all looks good....be sure to really use lots of tape to flatten out the back when finished folding...
See Pic 2

Obviously, this is not the heart in the tutorial....but I wanted to show a work in progress.....still not done, needs some embellishing of course.
See Pic 3

When on the circleofcrafters.com iris folding site....there are so many neat patterns to choose from. They also have a gallery of ideas so you can see completed projects made by fellow posters. Adds inspiration !!
