12. The Hidden Weave Foldable 3.Measure equal increments on the fold between face 2 and 3. If you want 4 different writing areas, measure 2 1/8 inches for each section. 1 2 3 4 © Susan Scott

13. The Hidden Weave Foldable 4.Cut completely through faces 2 and 3 at the incremental marks you made in step 3, but stop when you reach the edge of face 1 and face 4. DO NOT cut any part of face 1 or face 4. 1 2 3 4 © Susan Scott

14. The Hidden Weave Foldable 5.From a different colored piece of paper, cut strips having the same length and width as faces 2 and 3. © Susan Scott
