folding photo books

[tracy]

Does anyone know how to do those folding photo books that are real popular with scrapbookers right now? It basically folds up small and then when you open it up it is several squares pasted together to make a large photo display. Does that make any sense? Maybe there is a better way to describe this...It would be great to get a pattern for this.

These are called Squash Books and I think Chris Ramirez has the best instructions...

Hi,

I love these books!! I taught a class on them yesterday at my work. We made them in a 4 1/2 X 4 1/2 inch size. The girls in my class want to make mini ones next time. They loved the fact that you were only limited by your imagination on these. You can make them in any theme you want! I love that web site, it gave some nice examples, thanks!
