Record Type: concept
needleworking (process) (<needleworking and needleworking techniques>, <textile working processes and techniques>, ... Processes and Techniques)

 

Note: Refers to any process or technique done with a needle and thread, such as sewing, stitching, smocking, quilting, and embroidery. In common usage, the term is sometimes used to refer to decorative work rather than plain sewing; however, to distinguish more decorative work from plain sewing, it is less ambiguous to use "fancy needlework" or a specific needlework technique, such as "embroidery."

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Verwijst naar alle procedés en technieken waarvoor naald en draad worden gebruikt, zoals naaien, stikken, smokwerk, doorstikken en borduurwerk. In de volksmond wordt de term soms gebruikt om te verwijzen naar decoratief werk, in plaats van naar algemeen naaiwerk. Om het meer decoratieve werk te onderscheiden van algemeen naaiwerk, is het echter duidelijker om de term 'decoratief handwerk' te gebruiken of om te verwijzen naar een specifieke handwerktechniek, zoals 'borduurwerk'.
