CUTTING GUIDE FOR DRESSMAKERS PATTERNS.
"application mea auiy 2a,
T0- aZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, PHILIP SIEGER, la citizen of the Ilnited States of America, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New Yo'k, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cut ting Guides for Dressmakers lPatterns` of which the following 4is a full, clear. and exact description.
The ,paper patterns used by dressmakers in making garments are made in various shapes corresponding-to the different parts of the garment and are also made in different sizes. In cutting out the garment the pattern pieces are laid on the cloth and the lat-ter is then'cut around the edges of the pattern. It is desirable to lay the pattern pieces on the cloth in such manner as to leave the least waste, that is, to leave as few and as Small'unutilizahle scraps of cloth as possible, but even experienced dressmakers find this a` difhcult art, and it is seldom if ever mastered by an amateur, such as a housewife whose efforts at dressmaking are confined to 'making her own and her children's clothes. 'I' have therefore been led to devise my present invention, which has for its object to provide a cutting chart or guide which the user can readily follow without fear of error and which will enable lier to utilize her material with the minimum amount of Waste. 'llo this and other ends the invention consists in the novel features hereinafter described.
In carrying out my invention Il provide a, chart in which strips ot' material of different widths are shown, as for example material ranging from thirty-tive to forty-four inches in Widths` and on these the pattern pieces for thel different sizes of the garment, say sizes 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, etc.. are shown in outline, arranged yin such relation to each other as will utilize the materia-l to the best 4 advantage, with then` least amount of waste.
According to another feature of the invention the chart is provided with legends indieating what certainjof the pieces are for. and
suggesting uses for ,the scraps or pieces of material remaining after the garment parts have'been cut out. I
In the accompanying drawing I have ill lustrated one of my improved layout-charts in plan. rIherein a, ci", represent' strips of material of the narrowest widths and shortest lengths that can be conveniently used for 1920. Serial No. 396,406.
the particular garment and model, say materlal 35 or 36 'nches Wide, and on each strip the pattern pieces are shown in outline in the positions in which 'they should be arranged for cutting. Below the strips are printed legends giving the width of the material and the si/.es of the garment. Thus under strip a are the ivordsm or 36 inch material sizes 32 to 38, by which the user is informed that with 35 or 36 inch material the pattern pieces. for a garment 32, 34, 36 or 38 in size are to be laid out as shown. The two selvedge edges are indicated by the word Selvedge, so that in using material which comes folded lengthwisel the user will not make the mistake of arranging the pieces without unfolding the goods. In the space between pattern pieces l() and l1 and hetween parts 4 and 6 on layout a are the words Material for facing skirt and at theend of the strip thewords Material for lining sash. ()n layout ai these legends are between parts l1 and 13,-at the right of 5, and at the end of the strip.
Similarly layouts b and b illustrate, with appropriate legends, the arrangements of the pattern pieces for using 44 inch material in making the garment in sizes 32 to 38 and 4() to 44.
It Will he observed that with the exception of parts l() and 11 the parts are arranged differently in the diH'erent layouts, the object inpeach case being to utilize the material in the most effective and economical manner. It is to be understood that the numerals applied to the pattern pieces in the layouts correspond to the. identifying numerals withwhich the pattern pieces themselves are marked, as explained in the pattent to Hanna-h G. Millard, No. 1,313,496 owned by The Butterick Publishing Company, to which my present invention is as? signed.
ln some cases the pattern outfit supplied to the customer includes pattern pieces for making the same garment in several models or types, differing in various details. such-as style of sleeves, neck. etc., though alike in respect to the major features of the garment. These different` types are illustrated, usually on the envelope containing the pattern, and are commonly marked View A, View B, etc. In such cases I provide on my cutting guide chart a series of layouts illustrating the proper arrangements for all the different lliy models. Thus in the drawing, layouts aa,, b and b are for the garment represented by o View A, and are so marked, while layouts the chart is provided with general directions such as Se ect the layout of view, width of material, and size of pattern to be used. Then lay pattern pieces on right side of material as placed in layout. Y.
The use of my improved cutting chart not only saves material butl also effects a marked economy of time. This is true even in the case of the professional dressmaker, who, with the help of skill, experience and natural aptitude, may be able to study out a cutting arrangement which will avoid undue waste of material. With my layout chart, however, she arranges the pattern pieces at once, without any loss of time.
It is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the specific embodiment herein illustrated.
I claim:
.1. A cutting guide for dressmakers patterns, comprising a chart showing in plan a plurality of strips of material of different widths and showing in plan on the respective strips the pattern pie'ces laid out in differentarrangements according to the widthsof material for the economical utilization thereof, said strips having legends indicating uses, in the garment for more or less of the Vscraps remaining after the garment pieces are cut out.
2. A cuttingguide for dressmakers` patterns, comprising a chart showing in plan a plurality of strips of material of different widths in sets corresponding` to the diiferent sizes of the garment to be made, each strip having in outline thereon the pattern pieces arranged for the economical utilization of the material.
3. A cutting guide for dressmakers patterns, comprising a chart showing in plan a plurality of sets of layouts` for litferent models of the garment to be made; each set of layouts representing, Jfor the respective mode the arrangement proper for the economical utilization of di'eient widtliso'f tho material for different sizes of the garment.
4. A cutting guide for dressmakers` patterns, comprising a chart showing in plan a plurality of sets of layouts` for difl'erent models or styles of the garment to be made; each set of layouts representing, for the respectivemodel or style, the arrangement proper for the economical utilization oi' different widths of the material for ditl'erent sizes of the garment, and the several layouts also having legends indicating uses, in the garment, for scraps remaining after the garment pieces have been cnt out.
In testimony whereof I hereto ailix my signature.
