Daisy Aschehoug is an American quilter, designer and teacher currently living in Oslo, Norway. Just as you would imagine, Daisy’s quilts exude warmth, hygge, and a sophisticated style that evoke her Norwegian locale. Daisy began quilting almost eight years ago, familiar to most online as Ants-to-Sugar and an active member of North Carolina’s Triangle Modern Quilt Guild. Her family then relocated to Baton Rouge, and with the move came a transition in Daisy’s work. Her quilts took on a subtle sophistication, with layers of interest that gained notice of the Modern Quilt Guild. Daisy has since won numerous awards at numerous QuiltCons and her work has graced the cover of many magazines, including Love, Patchwork & Quilting. Most recently her quilts were recognized at QuiltCon 2018, including a Judge’s Choice award for her quilt, Hard to Handle. Newly rebranded as WarmFolk, Daisy now works and teaches classes in her new studio location of Oslo, Norway. In addition, she is the Communications Coordinator for SAQA, Studio Art Quilt Associates. She volunteers with Byverkstedet Project in the Holmlia neighborhood of Oslo teaching kids how to sew, and her quilt designs are featured as a part of the pattern collective, Quilt Theory. Welcome, Daisy!
