The motif is part of Cross-Stitch of the Year - March 1988. This gives the wall hanging a special connection to Haandarbejdets Fremme’s calendar tradition. Here, the months of the year were transformed into embroidered motifs with nature, colours and seasonal atmosphere.

The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. The finished wall hanging measures 30 x 30 cm.

A March motif with blue crocuses

The motif is built around a dense base of crocuses. The flowers appear in blue and violet shades. The small darker details give the flowers depth and life.

The green leaves stand among the flowers. They create height and rhythm in the lower part of the motif. The leaves also give a fresh contrast to the blue flowers.

Crocuses are often associated with the first colours of spring. In this embroidery, they stand as small signs that winter is beginning to loosen its grip. This makes the motif ideal as a March embroidery.

Fine branches and light spring shoots

At the top of the motif, a slender branch stretches across the surface. The branch is light and simple in expression. It gives the embroidery calm and balance.

Small green shoots can be seen on the branches. They emphasise the sense of new growth. At the same time, they create a connection between the branch at the top and the flowers below.

The motif is framed by a simple green border. The frame brings the embroidery together and gives it a clear expression. The light linen background gives the motif air.
