\"F\u00f8dselsdagsl\u00f8ber\" (Birthday Table Runner) \u2013 short table runner \u2013 Pelse Asboe (PA) is a decorative embroidery designed for the birthday table. Along the edge of the runner appears a row of small silhouettes of people, animals and various objects. Many of the figures hold small Danish flags, giving the motif a clear reference to Danish birthday traditions.<\/p>\n
The figures are rendered in a simple and graphic style. The motifs vary between people, a pram, a bicycle, animals and other small symbols from everyday life. The repeated rhythm of figures and flags forms a lively border along the edge, while the centre of the runner is left open for tableware and decorations.<\/p>\n
The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread, where the dark thread forms clear silhouettes against the light linen ground. The red and white flags introduce a striking colour contrast and emphasise the birthday theme.<\/p>\n
