Or make table runners and cloths; a breathtaking firescreen; lavender sachet; dressing table set; pillowcase; duvet cover, and more. All the stitches and techniques (including the "kloster blocks"--groups of satin stitches--that form the pattern's geometric motifs) appear in close-up photographs with simple instructions for the hardanger beginner.
