Re: Monthly Folding Challenge: February 2014
This is my first entry to this challenge but I hope to have at least one more.
I called it Brooch and I think it is as geometric as geometric it can be. Folded from an octagon cut off from a square of 30 cm on the side.

Very pretty reminds me a lot on Jeremy Shafer's Octagonal Spinning Top: http://youtu.be/5w7RKgaevAw
Here is a picture of a one I folded some time ago (the one on the left).

I forgot to mention that it is very possible that it has been done before. Thanks for pointing out the J Shaffer model, I did not know it, and now I like it a lot.

Please don't get me wrong. I didn't accuse you of copying someone else's work, I just saw the similarity and thought it was fun that you came up with something that had so much in common.
Re: Monthly Folding Challenge: February 2014
Wow..... Just wow! It seems the judging is going to be very very hard for me )

Cool theme and thank you very much for posting my model. I'm motivated to fold something for this challenge because I seldom fold geometric models.

Spiky Box. From a square of colored copy paper. It is the result of trying to find something to do with the leftover paper after making a crossboxpleating with diagonal pleats.

Re: Monthly Folding Challenge: February 2014
Glad to hear someone enjoys my choice in topic.
However, credit for the topic goes to a dear friend of mine, as she was the one who said to do math themed or something along those lines.

Recursive - of, relating to, or constituting a procedure that can repeat itself indefinitely.
