Christmas Rose - wall piece - Edith Hansen (EH) is a detailed embroidery design in cross stitch with a nature motif that brings together several elements in one harmonious composition. At the top, a fir branch stretches horizontally with fine green needles. Small cones are scattered among the branches, adding variation.<\/p>\n
Two small squirrels in warm red tones sit on the branch. They bring life and movement to the motif, and their placement creates a natural balance between the green and brown shades.<\/p>\n
At the bottom of the design, Christmas roses grow with delicate, light-coloured flowers and green leaves. They are arranged in a light and open composition, creating a calm surface. The contrast between the dense branch above and the airy flowers below adds visual clarity.<\/p>\n
The colours are carefully balanced. The green tones dominate, while the red squirrels add warmth. The light Christmas roses give the motif an elegant and wintry character. The light background supports the composition and highlights the details.<\/p>\n
The embroidery originates from The Year In Cross Stitch December 1988, giving the design a distinct historical context. It reflects the classic tradition in which winter plants and seasonal moods were interpreted through cross stitch embroidery.<\/p>\n
The embroidery is stitched in cross stitch on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen fabric 10B using Danish Flower Thread. The materials ensure a clear stitch definition and smooth colour transitions. The linen supports the many small details in both the fir branch and the flowers.<\/p>\n
The 30 x 30 cm format makes this wall piece well suited as a central feature on a wall. It can also be combined with other botanical or seasonal motifs. The design fits beautifully into both classic and modern interiors.<\/p>\n
The motif has a clear winter atmosphere and is naturally associated with the Christmas season. At the same time, its calm and nature-inspired expression makes it suitable for display throughout the year.<\/p>\n
Haandarbejdets Fremme has a long tradition of botanical embroidery designs with high precision. The Christmas rose is a classic winter flower that often appears in December motifs.<\/p>\n
An interesting characteristic of The Year In Cross Stitch is that each month has its own motif. December designs such as this are often inspired by winter plants and wildlife, functioning as small atmospheric scenes in embroidery.<\/p>\n\n
