Why don't you try to fold the model? When you get stuck at a step, you can ask for help. The diagrams are fairly straight forward and you should have no trouble follwing them if you have had alot of practice with origami.

I agree with Aznman, you should tell at which steps you are having problems so you can be helped better :-)

Btw, thx for the link, I wasn't aware that diagrams for this nice model are available on the Internet. JMcK taught this model at the last BOS Convention.
So long and keep folding ^_^

Hi,

You are most welcome (for the link).....I am stuck at step 13 where it says to collapse the 2 octagons. I may have my creases wrong though, but are the red lines mountain or valley? I guess I have to start with a new piece of paper....Please help.

Thanks & regards,

In these diagams the red lines are valley folds and the black lines are mountain folds. Step 13 is basically a sink in and out of what you have before opening the model completely.
Viewed from the bottom the structure you will get is very similar to the pictures I've posted here: viewtopic.php?p=8597#8597

Excuse Me.! I don`t understand the Step 21. Well.. I understand but the problem is the note that says:
Crimp 3 layers of paper on each side, and the mountain fold should touch the intersection of folded edges between the flower and the stem.
When you alredy do the crimp fold, there is a lot of mountain fold..
I only want to ask: Which is the mountain fold that the note is refering to?
Help me please.!! :cry:
