Needlework is a broad term for decorative sewing and textile crafts using a needle, encompassing techniques like embroidery, cross-stitch, needlepoint, and quilting. It involves embellishing fabric or creating functional items from scratch, with stitches ranging from simple running or whipstitch to complex patterns. Needlework can use a variety of threads, fabrics, and tools such as hoops, shuttles, or frames, providing a creative outlet for art, clothing embellishment, or home décor. While some needlework is purely decorative, others combine both artistic and practical elements, reflecting centuries of tradition and craftsmanship.
