The Year In Cross Stitch 2017
"Januar" (January) 2027 - cushion - Edith Hansen (EH) is an embroidery kit with a quiet and graphic winter motif. The motif is kept in natural colours, white tones and subdued brown shades. This gives the cushion a calm expression that fits beautifully into the home all year round.
A January motif with winter calm, branches and a dove
The motif is placed centrally on the cushion and framed by a simple border. Inside the frame are light geometric fields, which may bring to mind ice, frost, stone or light broken into surfaces. The expression is abstract, yet still clearly connected to the calm atmosphere of winter.
In the centre of the motif, brown bare branches spread out. A dove sits on the branches, adding a peaceful and poetic expression to the motif. The dove can be interpreted as a small sign of calm in the clear, quiet landscape of winter.
The branches give the motif direction, depth and a fine organic contrast to the more graphic forms. Together with the dove, they create a quiet story about January, when nature stands simple, subdued and full of small signs of life.
A classic cushion in unbleached linen
The finished embroidery measures 40 x 40 cm. The format makes the cushion suitable for the sofa, armchair, bedroom or a bench. It can be used on its own or combined with other cushions in natural colours.
The cushion has a simple expression, but the motif contains many details. The geometric fields give the eye something to follow. The branches create movement across the motif. The embroidered frame brings the whole composition together.
The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread. The thread gives the subdued colours a soft and textile expression. This suits the quiet and natural atmosphere of the motif well.
The cushion is embroidered on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 7U. 7U means that the fabric is 7-thread unbleached linen. The unbleached background gives the cushion a warm and natural character.
