fortune cookies, with their folds, as in folded-over dough, and a slim paper strip of story inside – in fact, all origami, and paper-folding. such as in – a child’s early grade paper fortune teller, and quilts. all, pretty much. one and the same.
\nin fact, a lot of early American quilt patterns – evolved from working with the folded strips of squares, and the resultant triangles that take life, too.
\njust like in Misaki’s painting. in fact, it looks more like a quilt to me, than a fortune cookie.<\/p>\n
