Many people consider laces to be a very beautiful form of fabric ornamentation. Laces are delicate and can be lovely on clothing, or on bed and table linens. Laces are often used to adorn wedding dresses. There are many types of lace, defined by how they are made. These include needle lace, which is made using a needle and thread. This is the most flexible of the lace-making arts. While some types can be made more quickly than the finest of bobbin laces, others are very time-consuming. Some purists regard needle lace as the height of lace-making. The finest antique needle laces were made from a very fine thread that is no longer manufactured today.

Laces are a popular and lovely form of ornamentation created by the looping, interlacing, braiding, or twisting of threads. One type of lace is bobbin lace. Bobbin lace is created from a pattern called a "pricking" and these are made with a tool called a "pricker,” usually a sharp pointed object that is used to make holes in the pattern which you use to insert the pin after the crossing of the threads. All threads are attached to objects called "bobbins" and they come in a large array of shapes and sizes. The bobbins, turned from wood, bone or plastic, hold threads which are woven together and held in place with pins stuck in the pattern on the pillow. Other types of laces include needle laces, knotted laces, and crocheted laces.
