Løvfald - cushion - Ole Kortzau (OK)

When the leaves begin to let go of the branches, a very special play of colour appears. Green leaves turn yellow, golden, brown and dusty pink, and nature takes on a calmer, warmer rhythm. This is precisely the atmosphere gathered in this embroidery kit, where Ole Kortzau has created a decorative cushion with lightly scattered autumn leaves on a light background. Falling Leaves - cushion - Ole Kortzau (OK) is an embroidery design with a simple composition, but with plenty of life in the colours and in the placement of the small leaves.

A cushion motif with leaves in autumn colours

The motif shows a fine scattering of leaves spread across the light surface of the cushion. The leaves are not arranged in a fixed pattern, but look as if they have drifted down and settled naturally on the fabric. This gives the cushion a light and lively expression, where the eye continually finds new small details.

The colours range from fresh green leaves to warm yellow and golden tones. In between, grey-brown, beige and muted pink leaves appear, giving the motif a soft and harmonious variation. The small round yellow dots between the leaves create rhythm and add a playful touch to the motif. They almost work as small points of colour that tie the whole surface together.

Each leaf is simply constructed, but has a clear shape. Some leaves are long and narrow, while others are more rounded or heart-shaped. Several have small stems and fine colour shifts, giving them direction and character. Together, the motif has a calm, natural movement that is particularly well suited to a cushion.

Embroidery kit for a decorative wool cushion

This embroidery kit is worked with Original Wool from Haandarbejdets Fremme on canvas. The wool yarn gives the cushion a full and soft surface, which is well suited to a home textile. The colours gain a warm textile depth, and the individual stitches create a clear structure in the finished embroidery.

The cushion measures 38 x 38 cm. The size makes it suitable for the sofa, armchair, bench or bed. The light background makes the motif easy to use in interior decoration, while the green, yellow and golden leaves add warmth without feeling heavy. The cushion can stand alone as a calm autumn accent or be combined with other cushions in natural colours, wool, linen or muted green tones.

The motif has a particular strength because it is both seasonal and timeless. It clearly points towards autumn and falling leaves, yet the expression is so clean and graphic that the cushion can easily be used all year round.

Haandarbejdets Fremme and Ole Kortzau’s simple design language

Haandarbejdets Fremme is known for embroidery kits where quality, materials and design go hand in hand. In this kit, canvas and Original Wool from Haandarbejdets Fremme come together in a motif created to be used in the home. The finished embroidery has both decorative impact and the particular textile weight that wool embroidery can provide.

With Løvfald (Falling Leaves) - cushion - Ole Kortzau (OK), Ole Kortzau has created a motif where nature is interpreted simply and precisely. There is no dense forest floor or heavy autumn mood here. Instead, falling leaves are shown as light leaves in motion, scattered across the surface of the cushion with a fine balance between colour, air and rhythm. This makes the embroidery kit ideal for those who want a usable embroidery design with a sense of nature, warm colours and a calm graphic expression.
