Corded Lace
Corded lace uses a raised outline stitch to trace and define embroidered motifs, giving the design extra dimension and a crisp, almost sculpted edge compared with flatter embroidery techniques. That added definition makes corded lace easy to spot and read from a distance, which suits statement garments, occasionwear and pieces where the embroidery is meant to be a focal point.
AnBella Designs sources its corded lace as European deadstock, sold by the metre to designers, ateliers and home sewists after a more textured, defined embroidered finish. As a speciality technique, availability is limited to what was rescued from each original production run, and a particular corded design will not be repeated once sold.
It is not the process of sewing it after placing the designer yarn or tape, but the characteristic of sewing while at the same time placing designer yarns or tapes. Depending on where the ribbon is sewn, the embroidery becomes three-dimensional.With cord embroidery, the embroidery can be done by not only sewing the center, but also by scoop-sewing so that the stop-thread cannot be seen.Rolled/Wrapped cord embroidery is a process of embroidering while wrapping thread around a core yarn. Depending on how it is rolled, you can easily change the thread out.
