It is quick to make, easy to recognize, and gratefully accepted by its recipient. With less than 10 folds, you can make someone happy with just a single dollar! Step 2: Fold the dollar bill into quarters. Step 3: Fold the top of the dollar bill. Make the crease right at the border where the money is white. Step 4: Fold up the bottom-third of the dollar. Step 5: Using the crease made in step 2, fold the left and right edges of the dollar bill inwards. Step 6: Fold back the top-edge of the dollar bill one more time. This will be the collar of the shirt.
