EMBROIDERY PATTERN AND METHOD OF MAKING- THE SAME.
Application filed January To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, KURT LEHMANN, a citizen of the United States,.and a resident of. the city of New York, county of New 5, York, and State of New York, have invent ed certain new and useful Improvements in a an Embroidery 'Pattern and Method of Making the Some, of which the following is a specification I My present invention relates generally to embroidery; and has-particular reference to an embroidery pattern or stitch produced in accordance with a novel method.
It is among the more important'ob ects oi-and designs capable of being" appli'qued, as i the invention to provide an embroidery pattern comprising a plurality of adjacently disposed rows which may be associated with each other along" predetermined curves and contours to produce desired designs and figures. V
It is amorespeclficobpct of the invention to provide a pattern of this nature wherein a resemblance to a chain stitched ornamentation is produced. Morepartlcularly,1t 1s an ob cct of the invention to pro Vide a composite design wherein the stitchingis arranged in rows as hereinbefore mentioned, and wherein each row is so constructed as to resemble a chain stitch. An object of my invention is to produce rows of stitching of this character, having an outward resemblance to a chain stitch, yet constituted of individual stitches which are entirely straight and which may therefore be produced on the welbknown Schillii machines.
Another object is to produce a stitch of this general character wherein the individual stitches are much more closely arranged with respect to each other than would be possible in the case of an ordinary chain stitch, whereby the base materiel is efiectually concealed to a. degree far exceeding that which ven a tightly arranged chain stitch would produce.
A feature of my invention lies in arranging a series of angular stitches in closely nested pcsitions, and properly coordinating not only the closeness, but also the align the quence which not only permits a continuous larityfand the thickness of thread, so that an entirely novel effect is produced oiijthe '13, 1926. Serial No. 80,925,
thread to beutilized, but which bears a cer tam-correlation to the factors of angularity,
spacing, and thread thicknessherelnbefore mentioned whereby the desired effect isproduccd. In .a preferred stitch comprises two sides of equal length,
and each side is laid by a stitch Whichhas;
its origin at the apefi of the angle.
The objects generally of embodiment, each angular.
my. invention are to produce an embroidery pattern which x will have Wide applicability, particularly;
in the manufactur of ornamental figures-a.
by sewing or gluing,.to a ide variety of.
innumerable others, and to provide d patj tern which will be not only inexpensivejfrom. the standpoint of manufacture but vhich articles. to be ornamented, such as lamp. shades, shawls, scarfs, blankets, dresses, and
will produce an extremely pleasing outward posed surface of a subtantially solid character having improved qualities of firmness r and wearabilit'y.
For the attainment of ects and such other obgects as may here inufter appear or be pointed out, I have il- Fig. 2 is an enlarged View of a portion of the pattern; and
,Fig. is a diagrammatic representation "of a preferred method of laying the stitches to produce the pattern.
The illustrative figure shown in Fig. 1
comprises a number of adjacently arran ed areas 10 each of which\ is constituted 0 a plurality of closely adjacent rows of stitching, the rows being arranged along lines and, contours which depend upon the representatlon desired and which enhance the finished the foregoing ob appearance and whichwill present an ex-' appearance of the-patterxii Each'area. is
preferably constituted of a single color, and
by properly dcsigning'variousareas in dif-.
ferent colors, a large variety of extremely ornamental finished patterns'or fiii'ge s may be 1 produced. Separating the areas, and is osed generally throughout the figure in acco ance with requirements, lines 11 of preferably solid black are proyided, and these lines may;
no I
produced in any desired manner, preferably of a width substantially less than the width. of the colored rows forming the body of the I design, and preferably constituted of a series of ordinary transverse stitches closely positioned. to produce an unbroken line.
The utilization of lines 11 is optional, and has no material eilcct' upon the invention other than enhancing the appearance of the finished. article and defining boundary lines between areas of dififerent color Eahh area is constituted oi a plurality or adjacen'tly disposed rows 13 (see Fig. 2), each row presenting anoutward appearance which resembles a chain stitch, but which is produced by an'entirely diil'c rent method pattern or cartoon is provided bearing the general configuration and design of the article to be produced on a greatly enlarged scale, and hearing also a number of lines and indicia in a predetermined and predesigned arrangement whereby the opera-- tor may in a predetermined manner utilize this cartoon a guide in manipulating the machine. In Fig. 3, I have illustratively shown a portion of the markings of a cartoon of this character, and more particularly, I have shown a portion which may be utilized by an operator in producing that portion of the finished design shown in Fig. 2. For each finished line or row of stitching to be produced on the machine there is provided on the cartoon a row of angles ll suitably spaced and of suitable angularlity in accordance with previous experimentation and design. I prefer to make these angles substantially rectangular, but it will be understood that the particular angularity "and the spacing will depend upon requirements and circumstarces and will bear a certain relation to the thickness of thread to be used, size otstitch desired, etc. Each angle has equal sides and in cases where the adjacent rows are straight, the terminal'euds oif' ach angle coincide with the terminal ends of the angles representing: the adjacent row.
T he operator starts at the apex of one of the angles and lays a stitch from that pointto the terminal end of the next adjacent angle but one. He then lays a returnstitch to the starting point so that the other side/of the .angle being; laid may also originate at the same starting point. After the second side has been laid, a short consteps by reference numerals, and assuming that the operator starts fli, the apex 15, he lays a stitch 16 to the free end 17 of the second adjacent angle he then lays a return stitch 18 back to the starting point and he then lays a stitch 19 to the terminal end 20 which corresponds to the end 17. A connecting stitch 21 is then laid to the apex 22 of the next adjacent interiorangle on the cartoon, and from the apex 22 as a starting point the steps are repeated.
It will be observed that the apices 15, 22, etc., constitute midpoints of the chain to be laid, and that the points 17 and20 constitute advanced points on opposite edges thereof. It will also be observed that the angularity of the finished stitches is substantially smaller than that of the indicating lines upon the cartoon. This exact angularity will depend upon the other factors here-inbefore mentioned, and in general, I have found that the spacing and angularlity of the finished stitches must be of such a character with respect to the thread thicknose that the free terminal ends of each laid angular stitch will be covered over and concealed by the next adjacent interior angular stitch. It is tl1is concealment and overlapping of the end portions of the angular stitches which produces the'efi'ect shown in Fig. 2 and is distinctive of my invention. In this connection, it will be observed that the apparent angularlity of the finished pattern is greater than the actual angularity laid. This may be due to the falling of the apex under the tensiomof the thread as it is laid, and it may also be due to the overlapping hereinbefore referred to. It will he understood however that this variance between the apparent angularity produced and the actual angularity laid is a still further factor which must be considered and taken into account in the initial design and lay-out of the cartoon pattern.
In the right half of Fig. 3, I have illustrated the actual stitches laid in accordance with the method diagrammatically illusiratcd in the left half oi the same figure. Both Fig. 3 and Fig. 2 are somewhat exaggerated .he latter being approximately four times as large as a preferred size of stitch. but the closeness'of the stitch will he evident, particularly when considered in comparison with ordinary chain stitching. in addition to concealing the base fabric to a greater degree in a longitudinal direction with respect to. the rows, it is possible acnearing; qualities.
cording to my method to lay the rows in closer-transverse adjacenco than would be possible with chain stitching; and accordingly an improved outer surface is produced having greater solidarity, firmness, and At the same time a novel and distinctive cll'cct is produced which lends i self particularly to the uses of the character illustrati-vely exemplified in Fig. 1.
An important feature of my invention is the laying of stitches in such manner that il'iternesting overlapping angles or V-lihe or inverted V-like configurations are formed by the stitching, such angles forming a single longitudinal intcrncsted overlapping row of lf-like configurations, the row as a whole being laid with the apices ot the angles or a lihc configurations substantially. along a prcdetern'iined line of any chosen contigurm lion, such row being obviously exactly one angle or one V Wide. As many of these rows are laid side by side, or laterally. as the desired pattern requires. It will be apparent that. this feature is imlcpendcnt ot the interrelationship of the plurality of laterally laid, rows, that is. it is independent-of whether such laterally laid rows are spaced apart tlroi'n each other, or whether they touch each other, or whether they overlap each other. llowcrcr, as a rule it is new orally desirable that the single rows are laid so closely to each other asto etlcctuallyv corcr thhv base fabric, unless it should be urcil "t hare this base fabric show at open spaces; [By the cxprr sion one angle wide occurring in the claims, I mean to define such a series ol angles as that just do- StillXPti. even though a plurality of such series laid side by side may be present in the pattern.
it will be obvious that various changes in the details herein described and illustrated for the purposo'ol explaining the nature of my invention may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as expressed in the appended claims; and it is therefore in tended that lhcsodctails be interpreted as illustrative and not in a lin'iitiin, sense.
' I claim 1. In an embroidery pattern, a single thread forming a series oi groul'is of stitches positioned to term ancxactly one angle wide series, oi longitudinally nested, angles. the
separated ends of the sides of each angle be.
ing' partially but subslmitially overlapped by portions of the sides of the next adjacent enclosed angle.
lln. an en'ibroidcry pattern, a single thread forming ascries of groups of purely straight stitches arranged to form nested angles, at least the interior longitudinal half of the separated ends of the sides of each 4 lining; overlapped by portions of the cs the neat adjacent enclosed angle.
- defining an angle, then as the next step positioniug and laying .a group of straight stitches along lines defining an angle nesting therewithin and'causingportions of the sides of such nesting angle to overlap portions of the separated ends of its next adjacent enclosing angle, and repeating, said steps to produce a pattern simulating a chain.
The herein described process of melting an embroidery pattern, which comprises laying in succession a series of groups of straight stitches from a single thread to l orm an exactly one angle wide seriesol longitudinally nested angles, and causing the sides of each angle to overlap portions of the separated ends of the sides of the en closing angle by suitably correlating the angularity, spacing, and thread thickness of each angle.
(3. The herein described process o't making a chaindike embroidery pattern, which comprises laying a continuous thread to form a stitch from a midpoint of the chain to an advanced. point on one ed e thereof, laying a return stitch therco'ver, laying a third stitch to an ad anccd point on the other edge to delinc an angle, laying a con-- necting stitch to a midpoint advanced with respect to the first midpoint, and repeating the steps to form a series of nested angles.
'7. The herein described process of making a cliaiirlilre embroidery pattern, which comprises laying a continuous thread to, produce a stitch from a midpoint of the chain to an advanced point on one edge thereof, laying a return. stitch 't-hercover to return the continuous thread to the midpoint, layin; a thirdstitch to a similar and synnnetricaliy advanced point on the other edge whereby an angle harin equal sides is produced. laying a connecting stitch from the last named. point to a midpoint in advance or" the lirst midpoint but within the sides of the angle, whereby the second midpoint will constitute a starting point for the laying of a nesting angle, and thereupon repeating the steps from said last named startingpoint. p
8. The'hcrein described process 05 making a chain-like en'ibroidery pattern, which comprises laying a continuous thread to produce till a stitch from a midpoint of the chain to an advanced point on one edge thereof, laying a return stitch thereover to return the continuousthread to the midpoint, laying a t? third stitch to a similar and symmetrically zuivzineeo point on the other edge, whereby on angle having equal sides is produced, hr ing connecting stitch from the last "tinned point to 21 midpoint in advance of .e first midpoint but within the sides of the angle, whereby the second midpoint Will constitutea starting point for the laying of a nesting angle, thereupon repeating the steps from said last named starting' point and layii'ig each angle so that portions or 15 the sides thereof will overlap portions of the separated ends of the sides of the previously laid migle.
In Witness whereof, I have signed this specification this 12 day of January, 1925.
