gros point

The better part of Demuth's art was reticent, stiff and dainty as his mother's gros point.

At first he could not hold a brush, so his mother got him interested in gros point embroidery.

A carpet measuring nearly-seven by ten feet, it consisted of twelve panels in gros point and a not-quite-finished floral border.

At a little later period the collar became more falling and the heavier "Gros point" was used.

Much of the old lace known as "Spanish Point" is not Spanish at all, but the best of Italian Rose Point on a large scale, being the variety known as Gros Point.
