1. You may only use a SINGLE paper (a square, a triangle, a rectangle, a circle, etc.)
2. No cutting or gluing.
3. YOU MUST DESIGN AND FOLD THE MODEL THIS MONTH. Older models will not be accepted.

if someone's going to fold the little girl, please note, that she's wearing the kimono i a wrong way! the left side is always worn over the right - except you're dead or you act as a dead one ...

Well, I wouldn't be surprised she's dead after getting stabbed in the head with the flag of Japan :P

you may be right with that supposition, topsu, but it could be a backworn banner as well. generally i think this month's topic a good opportunity to get a nice pattern for a folded "logo".

The Kimono on Eric Kenneway's book Complete Origami is wrong too.

you're obviously right, but i did not want you to pick up the misinterpretation of other artists but to be aware of an own mistake.

I am really annoyed with myself that I can't get round to making a Fickr account as I would enjoy these monthly challenges.

Just do it. The security issue mumbling is crap. Not to offend anybody though.
