Queen Margrethe II of Denmark – 50th Regent’s Anniversary
On the occasion of Her Majesty the Queen’s 50th regent’s anniversary, January 14th 2022, I have designed a tablecloth with 50 daisies.
The two patterns show a total of 10 daisies. Each daisy is embroidered 5 times.
The finished size is approx. 61 x 61 cm on 8 threaded linen canvas. Dark blue and golden threads are used.
Embroidered with contour stitches and cross stitches.
The patterns are free for you to use.
Enjoy!

You can repeat the pattern in the direction of the arrow to match the desired length.
Christmas Trees
Made with Ombré yarn no. 53 from DMC. I have cut the yarn into lengths so that the pieces change from dark to light. The dark end of the yarn begins at the bottom of each strip in the pattern so that the light end of the yarn ends at the top of the trees. The stitches are contour stitches and half cross stitches. Stitched with a partial thread in the needle on 10 thread linen canvas 10 threads per cm. The runner’s finished size is approx. 69 x 23 cm
Angel 2020
Runner stitched using cross- and back-stitches on linen, 10 threads/cm. Size approx. 28 x 102 cm.
The pattern was created from a black and white sketch, using a PC. Some of the initial sketch lines were edited a bit, to make them better suited for back-stitches. The light grey stitches help to make the pattern more clear, and the blue stitches gives the pattern form. The dark silver stitches are added along the edges for more detail.
Daisy
On the occasion of Her Majesty the Queen’s 80th birthday, I have designed a daisy pattern.
The 80 flowers are embroidered on a tablecloth (linen, 10 threads per cm.), finished dimensions approx. 77 x 77 cm.
Double Christmas Tree
Christmas Tree Carpet
This Christmas tree carpet was designed in 1991. Originally, the pattern was hand drawn, and I’ve recently made a computerized version with all the little details (like the many needles). Size, approx. 142 x 142 cm. Stitched with woolen thread on hessian fabric using cross stitches, and long stitches for the needles.
