Pieces of the Pie Origami Tessellation

 


So I recently stumbled upon a shape that was new to me. My Wagon Wheels Tessellation post reflected the first time I folded it.

This idea for this tessellation quickly followed. 

I was simply looking to modify the original idea to find a flat fold version.

Large hexagons with the chamfered rectangle off of them. Large triangles in the negative spaces. 

I had to do this odd little bisector fold where the points of the triangles met with the the axes of the hexagons.

I've used the technique before on a few occasions.  It feels a little like cheating, but not really. All's fair in love, war and origami. 


Crease pattern is next.
