Skovens dyr - tablecloth - Marianne Thornberg (MT)

"Skovens dyr" (Forest Animals) - tablecloth - Marianne Thornberg (MT) is an embroidery kit with a warm and decorative nature motif. The tablecloth has a wide border all the way around. Here, fir trees, deer, hares and small woodland animals stand in a lively forest scene. The centre of the tablecloth is kept light and open, so the motif frames the table without filling the entire surface.

A tablecloth with forest animals along the edge

The motif is built around a continuous forest border. Along the edge are dense fir trees in red, pink and dark tones. The trees vary in height and form. This gives the border a natural rhythm and a fine sense of forest.

Between the trees, the animals move around. There are deer with antlers, leaping hares and smaller woodland animals. Some animals stand still among the fir trees. Others appear to be running through the forest. This gives the motif a narrative and lively character.

The orange animals stand out beautifully against the red and pink trees. The colour contrast makes the small figures clear. At the same time, the warm colours give the tablecloth a cosy and almost fairy-tale-like expression.

The motif has a clear graphic structure. The border is striking, but the central field is calm. This makes the tablecloth practical on the table, because there is still plenty of space for tableware, serving dishes and decorations.

A large tablecloth for the table

The finished tablecloth measures 140 x 140 cm. The square format is well suited to both dining tables, coffee tables and smaller set tables. The tablecloth can be used as a decorative focal point in the table setting. It can also be displayed as a textile picture on the table.

Forest Animals is especially well suited to autumn, winter and Christmas. However, the motif is not only Christmassy. Woodland animals, fir trees and warm colours also make it suitable as a nature-inspired tablecloth all year round.

The tablecloth is embroidered with Danish Flower Thread. The thread gives the colours a soft and textile expression. The red, pink and orange tones gain warmth, while the darker details give the border depth.

The embroidery is stitched on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. The fabric provides a classic and light background. Here, the forest border stands out clearly, while the central field retains a calm and elegant expression.
