Hanna Mathilda Winge (née Tengelin; 1838-1896) was a Swedish designer and painter, who created various designs for embroideries. She was the daughter of Johan Thimotheus Tengelin (a blacksmith) and Anna Maria Hultman.

The Owl Panel, now in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, is an embroidered wall hanging worked in silk on a green silk damask ground material, with a cotton lining. The panel dates to the late nineteenth century. The design, officially called 'The Owl', was created by John Henry Dearle (1860-1932) around 1895. The design was sold in the form of a kit by Morris & Co. This particular example was stitched by Mrs. Battye c. 1900.
