EditorAnne Seven Cranes for Japan - After the tsunami, I wanted to do something to express my sympathy for the people of Japan. Since it's good luck to make one thousand origami cranes, I decided to make cranes. (But not one thousand!) Margaret Rolfe's pattern was available only in Australia, and when I ordered it, I couldn't wait for it to arrive in Canada. So in the meantime I traced a picture of one of the blocks and made my own foundation pattern. As a result, my cranes are facing the opposite direction from Margaret's. I'm sure the positive energy I stitched into them reached Japan anyhow!
