Golden winged warbler #2 of 3 emerged from the oak leaves today. With so much forest in the image, it feels like I make no progress. But I have to move the pins frequently, and much of the cartoon hangs freely in the back. I really want to have it done, as another tapestry is in the works. #fridahansen #billedvev #tapestry #tapestryweaving #contemporarytextiles #textileart

Kristin Elisabeth Juvik wove a beautiful Baldishol Tapestry reproduction. Norwegian weavers are still weaving this image, 900 years after the original was woven! So many Norwegians. Read "From 1180 to 2024 - Norwegian Weavers are Still Devoted to the Baldishol Tapestry," at robbielafleur.com. #baldisholteppet #baldisholtapestry #billedvev #norwegianart #norskkunst #norskkunsthåndverk

Check out some virtual and online lectures, upcoming exhibits, and links to posts by Laurann Gilbertson. One is about an embroidered baptismal dress from Norway, and the other is about Hardanger embroidery as an antidote for loneliness. norwegiantextileletter.com #hardangerembroidery #norwegiantextileletter

Yes there will be joiking, I assured my husband. We are waiting in line for this performance, with aquavit.

Would you like to listen to me -- virtually? Please join me for two lectures coming up on zoom. In a broad-ranging interview with Nearly Wild Weaving (from England!), I will discuss my passion for traditional and contemporary Scandinavian textiles and how my work has evolved. A second lecture on May 4 with Damascus Fiber Art School will focus on Frida Hansen’s transparent tapestry technique, with lots of photos of historical and newer transparencies. There will be little overlap — sign up for both! Details at robbielafleur.com. #fridahansen #tapestryweaving #contemporarycraft #contemporarytextileart #tapestry

A new transparent tapestry in Frida Hansen’s technique in the U.S. California artist Robin Weinert found this tapestry in his family. His Norwegian immigrant grandmother Ann Eliza Weinert had it. And she had a loom. But did she weave it? Did she buy it in Norway? Mysteries remain. More at Robbielafleur.com. Answers welcome. #billedvev #transparenttapestry #fridahansen #tapestryweaving #tapestry
