Ida Anna Winkler (1907–1995) was a Danish painter and textile artist.
In 1930, she joined the newly established Haandarbejdets Fremme (Danish Handcraft Guild), where over the next 65 years she created hundreds of mainly cross-stitch patterns.
They have been widely used not only in Denmark, but also in Germany, the United States and Japan.
She also contributed to a number of embroidery guides, some in English, published from the 1950s to the 1970s.
