Is there a way to flatten the blue surface in the image below? I'm trying to make a paper pattern.

I've attempted the method below, but I'm not sure I can do the combine step in my situation.

I have attached your model in a flatten state.  If you just want the flat pattern sketch, you can make Sketch 3 visible and turn off Body 4.
