These Swedish Embroidery Panels are so gorgeous, even if you've never embroidered, you're going to be inspired to start! Originally designed by the classic Swedish needlework supplier, Nordiska, these reprints of their 1960s designs look as fresh now as they did then, a little bit quirky, expertly rendered, and totally beautiful. Created in a collaboration between Nordiska's archive, Studio Flax, and Purl Soho, each design starts with a hand drawn image that is used to hand screenprint onto 100% linen fabric (whose natural color may vary slightly)... No machines or computers here! Every panel comes with a pattern that shows color placement and includes a list of the stitches used. For more detailed information about which stitches we used where, find a free supplemental Stitch Guide below!

Product Details

To complete your own Swedish Embroidery Panel, you will also need...

  • 10 colors of embroidery thread or floss. We used 100% linen embroidery thread, which we no longer carry, but cotton, linen, or silk are all lovely choices!
  • An embroidery hoop (Please Note: An 8-inch hoop or smaller is perfect for stitching, and for displaying, most designs fit in a 14-inch one. September Bloom requires a 17-inch hoop, which we, unfortunately, don't carry at this time, and Flora Glory and Meadow designs would be best stretched on a frame!)

  • A pair of embroidery scissors
