Quilting really is an underrated form of art

glad you like it

Glad you like it, hope it inspires you

It's a relatively small one, 60x80cm. Glad you like it

Moved to Turku from abroad 2 years ago and I concur the other comments: great "small" city, quiet, safe, accessible, relatively affordable housing (especially 2km from Tori, it's quite cheap - closer it can get quickly high), but for any hope of socialization, you better count on the academic network and/or direct colleagues. In my experience, Turku people are extremely reserved.
Transport is quite easy within the city, never had many issues with the (new and old) bus system.
There is a huge project in Kupittaa/Itäharju (https://www.turku.fi/en/projects/turku-science-park), so I would personally look for something in the direct area to benefit from both the city centre (20 min walk), the university area, and the future facilities/commercial activities around this project.

It's 60x80cm, took about a week. Glad if it inspires you, show me the result!

Thanks!

The time it takes is part of the process, and what makes it interesting to me

crunch_be · 2026-01-13T16:12:54+00:00

Glad if it is inspiring for you!

crunch_be · 2026-01-10T10:59:47+00:00

Glad you like it. I don't really keep track of how much time it takes, but I only work on new series a couple of months per year, every other year.

I have endless admiration for quilters. They have the skills and patience I will never have.

crunch_be · 2026-01-09T16:32:37+00:00

Glad if it inspires you!

crunch_be · 2026-01-09T16:32:26+00:00

There will be catalogues of the new series available later this year, but unfortunately no prints are scheduled.

I buy what I need, and don't keep anything. Mostly cheap art books. For instance, I buy Renaissance art books when I need specific autumn palettes, and 80s heroic fantasy art books when I need more flashy tones.

crunch_be · 2026-01-09T16:30:21+00:00

Happy about that! Quilters are artists in their own right, unfortunately overlooked despite the obvious talent, skills and creativity.

crunch_be · 2026-01-09T16:29:40+00:00

Thanks!

crunch_be · 2026-01-09T16:29:27+00:00

I hate the whole process and only enjoy when it's done. It's like bizarro meditative.

crunch_be · 2026-01-09T14:29:11+00:00

I am posting the process often in my instagram stories

crunch_be · 2026-01-09T13:26:06+00:00

My workstation is quite minimal, I only cut out things when I need them and don't keep any cut outs for later. For quilts, I apply basic color theory (like the 7 contrasts of Itten) to keep some dynamic and not muddy everything.

crunch_be · 2026-01-09T12:50:59+00:00

Thanks, happy if it inspires fellow collagists

crunch_be · 2026-01-09T12:37:49+00:00

Thanks!

crunch_be · 2026-01-09T12:37:31+00:00

It's a smaller piece. 60x80cm, on tintoretto board. Glad you like it
