Hardanger is an ancient form of Scandinavian cut work, requiring thousands of stitches to complete a small piece. It is nearly a lost art and I do not know any of the younger generations who can do it. I asked mom to make a small piece I could scrap on a 12x12 layout. I took a photo of mom working on a table runner and imposed it over a photo of my smallest Hardanger piece, then placed an actual sample on top. The journaling tucked under the sample reads, "Our family's Norwegian heritage is exquisitely displayed by mom's Hardanger embroidery & cutwork. Every stitch & every thread in the fabric is counted so the intricate designs match up at all points".
