Lilla - cushion - Marianne Thornberg (MT)
"Lilla" (Purple) - cushion - Marianne Thornberg (MT) is an embroidery kit with a rich and decorative pattern. The motif fills the entire surface of the cushion with ornaments, flower forms, spirals and fine repetitions. The colours are in purple, blue, dusty lavender and light tones. This gives the cushion a calm, yet striking expression.
An ornamented motif in purple and blue tones
The motif is built around a symmetrical composition. In the centre, there is a dense pattern field with small squares, curves and repeated forms. It forms the natural centre of the cushion.
Around the centre, the pattern spreads out in mirrored fields. Here, there are large flower forms, soft curves, spirals and small graphic details. The many layers give the cushion depth and textile character.
The colours are cool and subdued. The purple shades give the motif softness. The blue tones add calm and clarity. The light areas create contrast and make the many details easier to see.
The pattern has a clear rhythm. Some forms are repeated from side to side. Others sit like small surprises in corners and edges. This makes the embroidery interesting to work on.
A cushion with calm, pattern and balance
The finished cushion measures 40 x 40 cm. The square format suits the symmetry of the motif well. The pattern fills the entire surface and gives the cushion a cohesive expression.
Purple - cushion suits a sofa, armchair or summer house. It can also be used in a bedroom or a bright room. The colours make it easy to combine with blue, purple, grey, natural-coloured and light textiles.
The cushion is embroidered with Danish Flower Thread. The thread gives the colours a soft and lively expression. The purple and blue shades gain depth, without making the expression heavy.
The embroidery is stitched on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. The fabric provides a classic background with a fine structure. Here, the small patterns, outlines and colour shifts stand out clearly.
