Bondegårsdyr – cushion – Pelse Asboe (PA)
Farm Animals – cushion – Pelse Asboe (PA) is a figurative embroidery featuring classic animals from the Danish countryside. The motif includes a pig, cow, horse, sheep and hen, evenly distributed across the surface in a rhythmic pattern.
The animals are rendered in a simple and easily recognisable style. The colours are clear and natural, with shades of brown, black, white and green. Small tufts of grass between the figures create cohesion and give the motif a calm overall impression. The composition is both decorative and narrative.
Danish Flower Thread provides a dense and well-covered surface with a distinct stitch structure. Linen 7B from Haandarbejdets Fremme supports the graphic expression and highlights the contours of each figure. As a cushion, the embroidery introduces a textile element with character and warmth.
Created for Haandarbejdets Fremme, the design combines simple form with recognisable motifs. The result is an embroidery suitable for both children’s rooms and living spaces, bringing a touch of rural atmosphere and classic Danish craftsmanship.
