Below are a series of images with descriptions that outline my process towards creating an object for the plush lamp assignment.
First I designed and cut out a series of box templates. These would then be folded into cubes.

After constructing all the cubes I measured and cut fabric for the faces of the cubes.
Cutting fabric with my dog Q-Tip!
After attaching the fabric I put felt of the outside and sewed the edges to make the transition between fabrics more seamless.

After making all the cubes and attaching the fabric I created ‘invisible’ hinges using packing tape.
But it didn’t work and I decided to take it all apart and start over.
I discovered a new way to create a hinge system and round two worked out better.
