Go with the Flow Origami Flagstone Tessellation
This is a pretty cool little flagstone tessellation that I recently folded. It features several different classic configurations all rolled into one finished product.
You've got your six tirangles around a hexagon at the very center. Then there are some three rhombus cubes too. In addition to that, we also have some rhombus stars as well.
If I remember right, this was actually an accident. I had mapped out a different configuration where the center point repreats after some rhombuses flowing off of it.
But when I went to actually execute it, I drew out a slightly different (this) pattern on the paper. I didn't even notice until I had started the creasing process. By that point, I figured, just go with what I have and save the other design for another day.
The crease pattern I created is for the other idea, which I haven't folded yet. Not that I remember where I left it. Hopefully, I'll find it and be able to do the original idea.
If I think of it, I'll draw one for this tessellation and upload it later.
Update: I drew a quick diagram.
