To all whom it may concern: 7
Be it kn own that I, WILLIAM HENRY LEWITT,

My invention consists of a combined ruffler, hemmer, and tuck-creaser for sewing-machines, as hereinafter described, and also, in connection with the ruffler, of a removable adjustable clothguide.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my attachment as a tuck-creaser. Fig. 2 shows the attachment as used for ruffling, and Fig. 3 as a hemmer.
The bottom plate A (shown most clearly in Fig. 2) has a slot, B, to receive the screw 11, by which it is attached to the bed-plate. G is a tongue attached to the bottom of the plate A or forming a part of the same. a is a foot to support the further side of the plate A. The tongue 0 has a side extension, 0, which lies over the strip of ruffling cloth and separates it from the straight piece of cloth to which the ruffler is stitched. c is a finger above which both strips of cloth pass, the rnfflin g strip passing through the slot 0 D is a cloth-guide, that may be adjusted on the tongue 0 or removed therefrom. This guide has an upper and lower horizontal plate, 01 d grasping the tongue, and a vertical plate, (1 forming the cloth-guide proper. It is used in ruffling to guide the upper piece of cloth. E is an upturned flange, which is slotted horizontally to receive the graduated tongue f of the tuck-creaser. a are clips which hold the edges of the sliding plate F of the tuck-creaser.
The tuck-creaser is similar to that patented to J. G. Jensen December 13, 1870, No. 110,045, except that the described ruffler O a c c is applied thereto; and reference is made to said patent for description of said tuck-creaser.
Attached to the heel of plate F is a volute hemmer, G, the plate F having an orifice, f for the attaching-screw, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3.
I claim as my invention 1. The tuck-creaser, with its plate A O c c 0 adapted for ruffling, as described.
2. As an article of manufacture, the described tuck-creaser, ruffler, and hemmer, constructed and arranged as set forth.
In testimony of which invention I have hereunto set my hand.
WILLIAM HENRY LEWITT.
