Visit to Quiltefryd in Tønsberg

 In their classroom in the basement many quilts were displayed on the walls. Enjoy these pictures :-)

This wonderful flying geese-quilt is machine embroidered. 
Cute stitcheries. 
 "Le Jardin"; Rouenneries-fabrics from Moda; JUST BEAUTIFUL!! 
This pattern is sold as a BOM from Quiltefryd.
A Tilda-look pillow. 
 You could easily be tempted to spend a great deal of money in this quiltshop.....
Close-up of the little tablerunner. Cute!
Two purses in candy-colors.
Beryl helped me with a big smile and she had her birtday that very day!!! Happy Birtday to you, Beryl!!!
The owner of Quiltefryd; Åsne.
 My goodies from Quiltefryd and one fabric from another shop; Nåløyet. 
I'm always in a hurry and short of time! I want to have at least 30 hours a day........... Then I could sew more :-)

  1. This is a dream post for those of us who live to quilt. The quilts were beautiful, but those purses were precious. I loved your selection of photos.

    Hugs,

  2. Takk for titten! Utrolig mye fint!
    Skulle gjerne hatt noen timer i den butikken :-)
    Deler ønsket om 30 timers dager om en kunne brukt de ekstra timene til hobbyen.

  4. Hi Elin,
    I just wanted to let you know that I made use of one of your lovely stitchery designs. I've stitched up the friend angels and am making a little hanging pillow for my best friend. I've blogged about it if you want to see the result

    But don't expect too much as I'm only a novice embroiderer!
