Paper folding and cutting; a series of foldings and cuttings especially adapted to kindergartens and public schools
A paper-folding and cutting instruction manual by Katherine M. Ball, published in Boston by the Prang Educational Company in 1892 for kindergartens and public schools. Its pictures are plain black line diagrams: a repeating scalloped border with a fleur-de-lis, a folded circle with cut slits, and a stepped geometric cut pattern, which suggest a designer could borrow simple folded-paper motifs, symmetrical cut shapes and repeat borders.
