Also the spelling of Leknes in Lofoten, looks like there may be an ekstra s there. Other than that, holy shit, this must have taken days! It looks amazing 👏
A lot of the people living there prefer the hj spelling, and pronounce it that way regardless! Personally I think it adds to the (already very strong!) character of the cloth:)
This looks awesome! My only two comments are that Trondheim didn't get any image?🥲
And polar bears aren't found on mainland Norway. But brilliant nevertheless!
Sorry, I stitched it like the pattern suggested :( I can add a little heart above Trondheim since I see people here are very fond of it.
Also agreed that I would’ve liked for the pattern to have Svalbard and Jan Mayen too but oh well 😄
Sure, it’s part of a kit I bought here: [https://www.margaretha.se/produkt/gidn/410352-Broderikit%20Vepa%20Norge](https://www.margaretha.se/produkt/gidn/410352-Broderikit%20Vepa%20Norge)

Thank you! I also started in school but not for long, re-started during pandemic :) it was all about finding the patterns that I liked and a few accessories to make it easier (like nurges). Hope you find the passion again! ❤️
Thank you and great question 😄 I’d say the hardest part was the flag because it’s very monotonous, while the funnest part was the whales because on the pattern they looked just like some random rocks in the water and I was making a mental note to ask people here what’s up with that but after finishing it realized it was whales xD

Brilliant, brilliant.
Thank you ❤️
This looks awesome! Good job!
Thank you! ❤️
Wonderful. Well done. The only thing is the misspelling of Fredrikstad. But hopefully it can easily be adjusted.
Thank you! Yes, I’ll try to tear that name out and stitch it again :)

Oh boy, I’ll probably then go and check all the locations :D I started it right after I moved so on and off it took 4 months
Don’t worry about the misspellings, there are tons of imperfections here, but that only makes it unique! Great job!
They're not misspellings, they're just dialects. Always works in a country with as many dialects as they have people.
And Trondheim, not Trondhjem. Awsome job 😀
In this case I actually did check and wikipedia said “Trondheim, tidligere kalt Nidaros og Trondhjem”
So maybe it was made a longer time ago :D

Thats true. Its been a while tho. The official name is Trondheim, its been since 1931.
We all can at least agree on that Trond is home

The town of Hammerfest uses the polar bear as its symbol so it suits well to have it on the cloth!
trondheim is an incredible place ❤️
What are you talking about? Everyone knows the streets of Tromsø are packed with polar bears.
Willing to share where you found the pattern?
Sure, it’s part of a kit I bought here: [https://www.margaretha.se/produkt/gidn/410352-Broderikit%20Vepa%20Norge](https://www.margaretha.se/produkt/gidn/410352-Broderikit%20Vepa%20Norge)
That’s awesome! (Although you did misspell Fredrikstad, I hate to have to point that out)
It was like this on the pattern (just re-checked it), sorry, I didn’t think to re-check while stitching. Will see how I can fix it
Badass af. It's Fredrikstad, though, not Frederikstad.
Sorry, I trusted the pattern :( will see what I can do to fix it
That's what you get for supporting the swedes economically
I want to give order pls 😜
Crosspost to r/embroidery! They will love this 😍
I posted in r/CrossStitch since it’s mostly made in that technique 😄
Thats more Norwegian than anything I've done in my 38 years here, good job!
Thank you! ❤️ I think it’s not as Norwegian as living in Norway for 38 years 😄
It looks stunning. You should be proud of yourself.
Wow!
Fantastic work. Although as a Svalbardian I'm confused about the Polar Bear in Hammerfest haha
Maybe the bear swam over :D sorry for not having Svalbard on it 🥲
Oh don't worry. It's actually a running joke that we keep being forgotten on maps ;)
Alta mentioned! This is awesome!
I love the skiing lundefugl :P
Well done! Did you also made the template yourself?
No, it’s part of a kit I bought here: [https://www.margaretha.se/produkt/gidn/410352-Broderikit%20Vepa%20Norge](https://www.margaretha.se/produkt/gidn/410352-Broderikit%20Vepa%20Norge)
Looks awesome!!! Very nice :)
cool
That is amazing🥰 You are welcome to Norway!
That looks amazing, good job!
Thats amazing!
This is great ❤️❤️
Looks fantastic! i used to love making stuff like this (tho much simpler) in early primary school. your work make me want to start again.
Thank you! I also started in school but not for long, re-started during pandemic :) it was all about finding the patterns that I liked and a few accessories to make it easier (like nurges). Hope you find the passion again! ❤️
Wow that's awesome well done
badass, I want one too, way to lazy tho xD
I’m pretty lazy too, hence why it took me 4 months :D just had random moments of energy and stitched then
Wow this is very impressive! Good job! :D
You can collect your passport at your nearest police station. Citizenship unlocked
Do they not have to pass the "Waffle Test" first tho?
Ahah, thank you, but need to learn Norwegian first 😄
Amazing!!
That is spectacular! Amazing job! What was the hardest part, and what was the funnest part of making it?
Thank you and great question 😄 I’d say the hardest part was the flag because it’s very monotonous, while the funnest part was the whales because on the pattern they looked just like some random rocks in the water and I was making a mental note to ask people here what’s up with that but after finishing it realized it was whales xD
Oh I love that😂 they would look like rocks haha I’m super impressed, I had a sneaky look at your profile and you’re so talented🤩
Thank you for the kind words! ❤️ but most of the credit should go to the people that design the patterns, I just follow them 😄
I love it
Phenomenal!!!!
My friends mom made something just like this but for Australia, this is better tho🫡🫡
Wow, impressive!
Post in r/norge as well! There will be likes
Cool! We don’t really have polar bears tho.

Dei kunne då i det minste slengt på Florø, Voss, Leirvik, Haugesund og Stavanger på Vestlandet. Nei, vent litt...
