Dear Norwegian Textile Letter friends,

The message you received a short while ago was an unintended teaser! I am formatting the articles for the new issue (out March 31!). I did not realize that when I switched to the block-editing style in WordPress, that a message would go out when I saved an article in password-protected format. That’s how I send a formatted article to the author and proofreader.

You will see the really interesting article on flax soon, and several more articles, soon!

Until then, if you are not aware of the wonderful weaving exhibit now up at Norway House in Minneapolis, you can read about it in these two articles.

“Vibrant Traditions on display at Norway House: A colorful tapestry of Nordic color.” Carstens Smith, The Norwegian American, January 25, 2025.

“Norway House’s Vibrant Traditions — a tapestry of time and place.” Sommer Wagen. The Minnesota Daily, February 5, 2025.

Plus you can read about the individual pieces and the artists here.

The exhibit is up at Norway House until April 6. Visit if you can!

Now, I’ll have to figure out how to not repeat this mistake…
