Passementerie... is a French word relating to
adornment.
For textiles, it refers to decorative trims,
edges, braids and also buttons.
Most passementerie is constructed using
weave processes
and/or hand and machine
embroidery techniques.
An example of passementerie which I have been looking at is textile artist Elizabeth Ashdown (work below)
