Definition & Bedeutung von "surface embroidery"

What is "surface embroidery"?

Surface embroidery is a technique where decorative stitches are worked on the top of a fabric to create patterns and designs. In this method, the stitches are applied directly to the surface of the fabric, rather than integrating them deeply into it. This allows for detailed and textured designs using various stitches and sometimes additional elements like beads or ribbons. Surface embroidery is commonly used to enhance garments, accessories, and home textiles with colorful and intricate patterns.
