There is something special about a jar of homemade jam when it is finished with fine embroidery. It becomes not just a jar from the kitchen shelf, but a small gift, a table detail or a piece of needlework with personality. Lingonberries - jar cover - Gerda Bengtsson (GB) is an embroidery kit with a classic berry motif, where the red lingonberries sit beautifully among green leaves on the light linen background. The motif is small, but it has exactly the precision and botanical calm that make Gerda Bengtsson\u2019s designs so easy to love.<\/p>\n
The motif shows a lingonberry branch with several red berries gathered among leaves and stems. The berries appear as small, clear points of colour in the motif. The red shades give the jar cover warmth and make it particularly well suited to jars with berries, jelly, marmalade or homemade treats from late summer and autumn.<\/p>\n
The leaves are embroidered in muted green tones. Some leaves are dark and give the motif depth, while others have a lighter, more olive-green expression. The elongated leaves form a fine frame around the berries and give the motif a natural movement. The dark branch brings the composition together, so berries and leaves appear as a small botanical detail.<\/p>\n
The round format makes the motif especially decorative. When the jar cover is placed over a jar, the lingonberry motif becomes a small focal point on the top. It is a simple detail, but it adds a great deal to the overall impression.<\/p>\n

The light linen provides a calm background, where the red berries and green leaves stand out clearly. Danish Flower Thread has a soft and natural colour expression, which suits small fruit and berry motifs beautifully.<\/p>\n
