Book Description

090621288X 978-0906212882 March 1994
The fractal cuts in this book are used to create a collection of ten attractive pop-up cards. Each is made from a single sheet of white paper cut and folded according to a fractal rule and glued within its brightly colored cover. Just as fractal images gain evermore beauty and complexity by the repetition of a simple rule, so it is fascinating to see how each pop-up fractal cut develops step by step. Combining theory and practice in a satisfying way, this book will be of interest to all who have ever wondered about the significance of the ideas suggested by fractals.

4.0 out of 5 stars Make interesting geometric pop-ups, September 13, 1999
This review is from: Fractal Cuts (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book that will help older children & adults alike make interesting geometric pop-ups. Though the designs are complex & take some patience, they are definitely worth the effort.

The book starts out by explaining fractals & teaching how to draw some of them. Ten card projects follow grouped from easiest to hardest. You are supposed to cut up the book, but you can make copies if you want.

Clear, step-by-step instructions & a template are given for each card. Pages with printed patterns that can be cut & used to make the cards are also included. For each one, ideas to make the card fancier are shown.

Making these cards truly brings a sense of accomplishment. They also make beautiful & unique gifts. I have given them to many friends and they have been very delighted & impressed.
