Crane #109 - #116

Yes, there was crane making at Igfest. I met up with Dom from the Optimist's Society and some other local optimists for a spot of coffee before playing games. Upon spying some origami paper on the table, I couldn't resist, and began making cranes. A few people opted for a lesson, and soon after, a small family of cranes came into being. This was followed by someone making an origami boat, which I really need to learn to make.

Soon after I bumped into Dave and Jess from Team Hat, and presented them with their gifts - origami cranes with their own origami hats.

Crane #107 and #108

Otherwise known as the cranes who went swing dancing... I've recently taken up lindy hop dancing, and the lovely Mithi (who teaches some of the classes) had got excited when she found out I was doing the project.

So I made Mithi a crane (and one for my friend Craig too).

Crane #104 - #106

My friend becky and I met up for a long overdue coffee and catch up. In typical disorganised fashion, I hadn't had time to get her a birthday present, so I made her a crane while we were sat there. This then led to me teaching her how to make them, and thus 3 cranes were created...

Crane #101, #102 and #103

I love the kingsdown wine vaults - it's got to be one of ky favourite pubs in bristol, and I really don't go there enough.
In an attempt to rectify this, I went to the quiz there on Monday night with my friend Ali. Despite sucking at quizzes we had fun, and I made a few cranes as a thankyou. Take particular notice of our answers in the 'identify the book' round...

Crane #97 - #100

First milestone of 100 is reached whilst having a break from paper writing in cafe kino. Only three are pictured as I gave the fourth to my friend Kate.
Only 900 to go...

Crane #80 - #96

My friends opened up their house for lovely music as part of the southbank arts trail. So I got to spend all afternoon sitting in their garden listening to music and drinking tea. And I made one or seventeen cranes, including teaching someone how to make them.
Oh and check out the awesome paper stars Lizzie made...

Crane #79

Thankyou cafe kino for being such a lovely place to sit and work.
