**Definition**
Tambour is the French word for drum and tambour work is embroidery done with
a hook where the fabric must be stretched tight as a drum.
The fabric is stretched and laced or sewn on on a
rectangular frame or in a circular frame. A tambour hook makes one stitch, the chain stitch.
The hook is held on top of the frame with the threaded beads or sequins underneath.
