To make it possible to cut slits in the base fabric afterwards. Thus the embroidery becomes airy and comparable to lace. First, needlewomen manually apply a drawing on canvas, then along its borders they skillfully created the running and buttonhole stitches. In the last turn carefully cut away excess material. With the advent of embroidery machines the work became less time-consuming, and today such a design, as ROSE RICHELIEU CORNER, can be a lot more easily transferred to textiles.
