\"Delfin med unge\" (Dolphin with Calf) - cushion - Marianne Thornberg (MT) is an embroidery kit with a calm and maritime motif, where two dolphins move across the light linen background. The motif has a clear graphic structure, but also a soft and flowing feeling. The blue and turquoise colours give the cushion a fresh expression, while the ornamental patterns in the dolphins\u2019 bodies add depth and many small details.<\/p>\n
The motif shows a large dolphin and a smaller calf. The large dolphin leaps at the top of the motif with its body curved in an elegant arc. Below it is the small dolphin calf, following the same movement in a smaller format. Together, they create a fine story about closeness, movement and marine life.<\/p>\n
The dolphins are embroidered in blue, dark blue and turquoise tones. The colours create a clear connection to water and sea, while standing out beautifully against the light linen background. The large dolphin has darker details along the body and tail, while the turquoise sections add light and variation. The small dolphin has a deeper blue colour palette, making it clear without taking focus from the whole.<\/p>\n
Both dolphins are filled with decorative spiral forms, waves and fine pattern lines. This gives the motif an artistic and ornamented expression. The dolphins are not depicted in a completely realistic way, but as a free and decorative interpretation, where the form of the sea animal is combined with pattern, rhythm and textile character.<\/p>\n
The finished cushion measures 40 x 40 cm. The square format gives plenty of room for the curved movement of the dolphins, and the light linen background creates air around the motif. This gives the cushion a light and simple overall expression, even though the embroidery itself contains many details.<\/p>\n
\"Delfin med unge\" (Dolphin with Calf) is well suited to a summer house, child\u2019s room, living room, garden room or any space where you want embroidery with a maritime atmosphere. The motif has a clean and fresh character that works well in both a light Nordic interior and more colourful surroundings.<\/p>\n
The cushion is embroidered with Danish Flower Thread on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. Danish Flower Thread gives the blue and turquoise shades a soft and lively expression. The linen provides a classic background, where the ornamental forms stand out clearly.<\/p>\n
Haandarbejdets Fremme is known for embroidery kits where materials, colours and design tradition come together as a complete whole. In this kit, classic linen and Danish Flower Thread meet a motif with a more graphic and contemporary expression.<\/p>\n
With Dolphin with Calf, Marianne Thornberg has created a cushion where the animals of the sea become a decorative textile motif. The two dolphins, the blue colours and the fine spiral forms give the embroidery a special balance between calm and movement. It is an embroidery kit for those who love maritime motifs, animals, blue colours and cushions with a personal and artistic expression.<\/p>\n\n
