I just got Tomoko Fuse's new book Fabulous Modular Origami: 20 origami models with instructions and diagrams. In modular origami multiple pieces of paper are folded and then assembled into a single unit. The Summary below lists the books 20 folding projects. All designs have a difficulty rating of 1 through 5, easy to expert. The number of modules per unit varies. The easiest models need only 2 pieces of paper while the most difficult require as many as 30. Nearly all have a recommended paper size of either 3 or 6" squares. Instructions are via large folding diagrams, complete with symbols and text. Photos by Dario Canova show the completed models from a variety of angles. Dover Publications released the 128 page paperback on September 12, 2018. Get your copy below!

The Large star from page 118 requires 30 pieces of 4" square paper.
This is the Bright star I folded from page 52. It's an ingenious and satisfying fold! No cutting is involved. The design has a difficulty rating of 3 out of 5. Five pieces of 3" square paper are required to make it. All five units are folded identically and then assembled into a single unit. Assembly is not difficult. While glue isn't necessary, I used it to make my star more durable. It measures approximately 4 1/2" across when complete. I love it!
