Blå engle - table runner - Ida Winckler (IW)

"Blå engle" (Blue Angels) - table runner - Ida Winckler (IW) is an embroidery kit for a narrow and atmospheric table runner with a classic Christmas motif. The motif consists of blue angels, green fir trees and small golden stars, repeated along the sides of the runner.

The centre remains calm and light. This leaves space for the table setting, while the embroidery forms a decorative frame around the runner. The expression is simple, festive and easy to combine with both classic and more subdued Christmas decorations.

The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 12B. The finished table runner measures 19 x 90 cm.

A Christmas motif with blue angels

The motif is built up as a repetition along both sides of the table runner. The blue angels face inwards towards the centre and create a fine rhythm throughout the length of the runner.

The angels are embroidered in deep blue and blue-green shades. They have small golden halos and light facial details, giving the figures a gentle and recognisable expression. The darker blue dresses create contrast against the light linen background.

Between the angels are green fir trees. The trees are embroidered in several green tones and have small light details that give them fullness. The triangular shapes add structure to the motif and suit the narrow format well.

The small golden stars sit like warm points between the angels and fir trees. They bring the motif together and add a fine touch of Christmas glow to the table runner.

A table runner with a calm central field

The table runner has an open central field. This makes the design practical on the table, as the embroidery does not compete with candles, dishes, plates or Christmas decorations.

A yellow border runs along the edge. It frames the motif and gives the table runner a finished expression. The golden colour is repeated in the stars and the angels’ halos, bringing the whole design beautifully together.

Blue Angels has a classic Christmas expression without feeling heavy. The colours are calm, while the golden details still add warmth to the motif. This makes the runner well suited to the December table, Advent coffee or a small Christmas table setting.

Embroidered on linen 12B

The finished table runner measures 19 x 90 cm. The long and narrow format suits a coffee table, dining table, side table or chest of drawers well.

The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread. The thread gives the blue, green and golden shades a soft and natural expression. The colours stand out clearly, while retaining a classic textile calm.

The fabric is Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 12B. The fine linen structure suits the small repeated figures and the simple details in the angels, fir trees, stars and border well.
