Easter Egg 2023 – Pia Matthiessen (PM)
"Påskeæg 2023" is a refined and contemporary embroidery project that continues Pia Matthiessen’s calm, graphic design language. The motif is balanced and light, created to blend naturally into Easter décor without dominating. The small format gives an elegant expression that works beautifully on its own or together with other embroidered Easter eggs.
The embroidery is worked on Haandarbejdets Fremme Linen 12U, a Natural linen with 12 threads per cm. The natural ground adds warmth and gives the colours a soft, harmonious appearance. The fine structure makes precise stitching easy, even in a compact motif, and ensures an even stitch definition.
The design is stitched with Danish Flower Thread, known for its matte surface and reliable colours. The thread supports the motif’s simplicity and adds depth without heaviness. Combined with the linen, it results in a durable piece that can be enjoyed year after year.
With a finished size of 6 × 9 cm, Easter Egg 2023 is a manageable project that comes together quickly. It is well suited as a hanging decoration on spring branches, in windows, or as part of a coordinated Easter display. The egg also makes a thoughtful small gift or a natural addition to Easter eggs from previous years.
As a design from Haandarbejdets Fremme, Easter Egg 2023 represents classic Danish embroidery in a modern interpretation. At House of Needlework, it is included in a curated assortment with a focus on quality, tradition, and seasonal relevance.
