As always with these cloth things it makes for a nice animation, however it
also has the usual over-stretched appearance which I've seen of others in
the past.  Can see it best at the apex where the squares become much larger
than adjacent ones.  Since cloth seldom stretches much even under tension it
makes it look more like a thin membrane, or act as a loose netting were it
only strings along the checker lines.
Unfortunately I haven't tried anything like this myself, I'm just pointing
out what I see wrong about it.  I would think preventing the stretching
while keeping conformation to shapes, and still folding, might be possible
somehow by not allowing for much proximity change in some way.
