This tessellation, designed by Shuzo Fujimoto, is almost identical to my John Lackland Tessellation except for using petal folds instead of simple valley folds for decoration in the four corners of a molecule.

This design is very similar to CFW 328 (pictures coming up) and it took me while to figure out they were two separate designs and how they differed since Fujimoto’s books don’t contain any instructions or crease patterns but only low-quality images of the folded models in back light. The key to telling the two tessellations apart is how pleats that emanate from each molecule are aligned: in this design (CFW 55), pleats are parallel to the direction pointed by the petals while in CFW 328, pleats are rotated 45° relative to the petals.
