When I created SCANDI 1955, I wanted to capture the joyful spirit of Swedish mid-century design – a time when bold colours, playful shapes and beautifully simplified florals brought personality and warmth into everyday homes. Inspired by the textile traditions of 1950s Sweden, I combined graphic flowers, stylised leaves and nostalgic Christmas colours with a fresh, contemporary expression.

For me, embroidery is about so much more than needle and thread. It is about the pleasure of creating something with your own hands and the connection between past and present. SCANDI 1955 is my little tribute to Swedish design history – tomorrow’s heirloom, made with yesterday’s inspiration.

Happy Stitching!
