Embroiderer's Progress Quilt Block 27: Hardanger Snowflake

Block 27 of the Embroiderer’s Progress Quilt: Hardanger Snowflake.

A bit of a Hardanger motif found in one of the old DMC books at antiquepatternlibrary.org. I wasn’t sure about the blue ground at first – it looked too grey-green in some lights – but I think it turned out well. I’m planning for 29 to be its companion motif done in black, just because I haven’t seen Hardanger done in black.

4”, size 8 and 12 DMC perle cotton on linen, Summer 2011.
