Our October workshop will be a fun interactive structure taught by our member from York, England, Margaret Beech. We will make two identical origami boxes, which when laced together in an ingenious way make a Revolving Cube. Margaret promises that this is much easier than it sounds, but suggests that you watch a short video by NORBAG member Nancy Akerly demonstrating her "Rolling Cube".

Special thanks to Nancy for the original instructions.
- Two 7" squares of decorative paper (good weight)
- Two 2 1/2" squares of the same paper used for the box
- Three 7" x 1/2" strips for the lacing, colored on both sides. Note: If your paper is lightweight then cut the strips 1" wide, fold in half lengthwise and glue together.
Also, cut the following pieces from light cardstock. Margaret recycles old greeting cards; these will be concealed inside the boxes. Please have them cut in advance.
- Two 2 1/2" squares (these will reinforce the bottom of each box
- Eight 2 1/2" x 1 1/4" pieces (these will reinforce the sides of the boxes
