The Year In Cross Stitch 1991
"Pige i mælkebøttemark" (Girl in a Dandelion Field) – wall piece – Vibeke Olris (VO) is a figurative embroidery with a summery landscape motif. A small girl walks through a large meadow filled with blooming dandelions while pulling a red pram behind her.
The motif is composed with a simple and clear structure. The yellow flower meadow fills most of the image and forms a lively surface of small blossoms. In the background, a darker green row of trees and a narrow blue horizon create depth in the scene. The small figure in the foreground adds a narrative and human element.
The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread, which provides clear colours and a dense stitch structure. The many yellow and green shades bring life to the flower meadow and give the motif a light and summery character.
The design was developed for Haandarbejdets Fremme and is embroidered on Linen 10B from Haandarbejdets Fremme. The fabric’s structure highlights the cross stitches and gives the embroidery a calm and harmonious expression.
This embroidery functions as a small wall piece evoking childhood and summer in the Danish landscape.
