Easter Egg 2024 – Pia Matthiessen (PM)
"Påskeæg 2024" is a small, refined embroidery project with a calm and contemporary expression. Here, Pia Matthiessen continues her distinctive design language, where simplicity, balance, and repetition create a motif that is easy to read and pleasant to stitch. The egg appears elegant in its compact format and works beautifully as Easter decoration, either on its own or in combination with eggs from previous years.
The embroidery is worked on Haandarbejdets Fremme Linen 12U, a Natural linen with 12 threads per cm. The natural ground adds warmth to the motif and softens the colours in a harmonious way. The fine structure allows for precise stitching even on a small surface and results in an even, well-defined stitch appearance.
The design is stitched with Danish Flower Thread, known for its matte surface and reliable colour rendering. The thread adds depth without heaviness and suits the light, springlike atmosphere of Easter. The combination of linen and flower thread ensures a durable result that can be enjoyed year after year.
With a finished size of 6 × 9 cm, Easter Egg 2024 is a manageable project that comes together quickly. It is well suited as a hanging decoration on branches, in windows, or as part of a coordinated Easter display. The egg also works well as a small gift or as a natural addition to Pia Matthiessen’s ongoing series of Easter eggs.
As a design from Haandarbejdets Fremme, Easter Egg 2024 represents classic Danish embroidery in an updated design language. At House of Needlework, it is included in a curated assortment with a focus on quality, tradition, and seasonal relevance.
