Hedebo Embroidery and the Elements
The different variations of Hedebo Embroidery demand the use of different types of embroidery tech-niques and skills. Every variation was built upon former and newly- added techniques and shapes. A finished piece of Hedebo Embroidery consisted of different elements: hemstitching, plaited warps, and Hedebo edges which all encircle or finish the central embroidery. It was the finished article as a whole which gave Hedebo Embroidery its unique character in both technical and cultural history terms.
