I feel like I’ve been introduced to a new ut I just slowed the speed downworld. All the painted papers I have piled up that are too thin for other purposes now have a new life. And this is just the first tutorial I watched. To tell the truth I was scared that I wouldn’t be able to fold accurately but I just slowed the video down and made 2 perfect pockets/envelopes right off the bat! Thank you.
