Papercraft to Sewing?

Does anyone know how well paper-craft patterns (like this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v514/Jetlogs/angeling.png) translate well to fabric? Has anyone tried this? How was it??

   You will need seam allowance for the sewing. At least 1/4″.

   I would try the second one first since it is already spread out in sections, using cheap muslin or an old pillowcase or sheet.

   If it works out will, then make it from better choices of fabric.

   The thicker the fabric, the more difficult the sewing will be.
