Best of 2023

 Cheryl's Linky Party is here again. This year I've not been so good at blogging. But I love my Instagram. So most of my things I make you can see there. Please visit Cheryl's blog to see what others have made this year.


Colourwash quilt

The first big quilt for the year was my scrappy colourwash quilt. It was displayed in Stavanger in March, and I'm really happy with how it came out. Here you can read more about it. 


Mini La Passion

I finished the top with about 17 000 hexies, sized 1/4". Just now I've almost finished hand quilting it, and I work with the special binding on it. In March it will go to an exhibition in Oslo, and surely I have to finish it before that. Here is more about it.


Chilhowie Mystery Quilt

Bonnie Hunter's mysteries are always tempting me. This time I made a smaller version of the quilt. And I'm really happy with it. You can read more here.


Postcard from Sweden

I've wanted to make this quilt for many years. This year it came true, and here it is. And some more about it here.


Hand made bowls

I tried some hand stitching on bowls this year. And I really love the result. I've planned to make some more of them. They are so useful for keeping the different small projects in. Here is where you can find out more about that project.

  2. I love the quilts that you share and of course have a special love for the tiny hexagons they are so much work and you spent a lot of time on them. A lot of people have moved to just Instagram, but I know a lot of us still enjoy reading blogs and staying caught up that way with other quilters - I try to do both for now

  13. I love all your projects, Turid. Such a range of finishes. But there is nothing "mini" about your Mini La Passion quilt. It is an unrelenting labor of love, lots of love and of course passion. Wishing you lots of joy and creativity in the new year!
