  Définition

  A hand-made lace made by stitching according to a predetermined plan, a sewing needle and thread being used.

  Note :

  A skeleton of outlining threads is held in position by tacking in accordance with the pattern drawn directly onto layers of linen or onto parchment attached thereto. The ground net and the pattern are stitched onto this framework without stitching through the backing, and the backing is removed, when the lace is made, by cutting the tacking between the two layers of linen.
