Embroidered laces: embroideries which make holes in woven cloth, or do embroidery stitches on machine made net.
Pulled thread embroidery is comprised of patterns which are created by pulling the threads of the fabric as the stitches are made to produce a lace-like design.

Elaborate medieval embroideries were often further enhanced by the addition of pearls and other precious and semi-precious stones, gold or silver ornaments, enameled plaques or, very occasionally at this period, glass beads or discs, whilst some are almost exclusively composed of these ornaments and might not properly be considered as embroideries.

Embroidery and sewing were the concerns of most women and girls, and the young daughters of affluent families were trained early in needlework as a refined accomplishment, as well as a practical skill.
Freehand embroidery is often referred to as 'fabric painting,' because stitching by machine without the feed engaged allows you to stitch in any direction on the fabric that you want to.
