EMBROIDERY AND PROCESS.
Application filed'August 27, 1924. Serial No. 734,417.
This invention relates to a novel form of ornamentation and a method or process of producing the same.
It is an object of the invention to provide ornamentation, particularly as applied to material which-may be used in connection with dresses, draperies, pillow covers, etc, and by means of which a novel and pleasingly artistic effect will be achieved.
A further. object is to be predicated on the provision of novel ornamentation and a method of furnishing the same whereby effects in harmony with the individuality of the user may be produced with facility.
A still further object is that of providing an invention of the character stated, by means of whicha surface to be ornamented may have this ornamentation applied to it far more quickly than has heretofore been practicable in applying embroidery and similar ornamental work to surfaces.
Another object is that of furnishing ornamentation and a method of producing the same, by means ofxwhich it-will be feasible to utilize materials heretofore regarded as impracticable for this class of work, and .further, in thatmaterials of this nature may be employed to produce novel and str king effects.
Still another object is that of furnishing novelornamentation which will not be injured or rendered unsightly despite severe usage. a
Other objects of the invention will in part be obvious and will in part appear hereinafter.
The invention accordingly comprises the several steps and the relation and order of one or more of such steps with respect to each of the others, andthe article possessing the features, properties, and the relation of lowing detailed disclosure and the scope of the application of which will be indicated in the claims. j
For a fuller understanding of the nature and objects of the invention reference should be had to the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, in which: F 1 illustrates a strip of material which ssuitable for use in practicing the process of ornamenting hereinafter particularly described;
Fig. 2 is a face view of a sheet of material and showing generally the ornamental effect produced;
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary enlarged view of a portion of the ornamentation as illustrated in Fig. 2; and
Fig. 4: is atransverse sectional view taken on the lines 4-4 in the direction of the arrows in Fig. 8.
It is to be understood that, for the sake of simplicity, and to enable those skilled in theart to readily follow they present invention, all of the foregoing views are of a somewhat diagrammatic nature. 'In actiial practice thedesign will usually be ofja far. more complex nature than that illustrated in Figs. 2 to l, and the strip or strips utilized in producing this design will ordinarily be of contrasting colors; which may or may not be harmonious with the background. or base with which they are associated, and these strips themselves may.
carry figured designs in order to furnish a finished result Whichwill be of an extremely artistic and pleasing nature.
' 'VVhile the ornamentation process forming the subject matter of the present invention may be practiced on backgrounds or mount ings of material of any desired character, the same is particularly intended to be utilized in connection; with goods which will not readily rip or unravel. For example, as in Figs. 2 and 4, in which the mounting portion has been indicated by the reference numeral 5, this material may be in the nature of linen, silk, knitted and Woven fabrics,
etc. Likewise, the embroidery element, i. e., the strip shown, for example, in Fig. 1, and identified by reference numeral 6, may be of any desired material, although'it is preferred that the same be of such a nature'that it shall be capable of presentinga frayed edge, thcthreads of which are conveniently soft and of a line texture. l
The design to be produced may or may not be previously laid out upon the material 5, and according to the texture ofthis material a stiletto will or will not be employed in order to produce openings through which the strip may be subsequently threaded. It is to be borne in mind that in the instance of knitted fabrics being used, which are of a relatively porous or coarse nature, the openings may simply beformedqby crowding certain of the threads aside, this being done by the needle or other implement which carries the end of the embroidery element. However, in certain instances, where there exists the danger of the fabric 5 being torn, a suitable implement can be employed to provide the opening aforenamed, a A strip, as in Fig. 1, is torn or cut from a sheet of fabric, it being understood that the latter is chosen with the thought'in mind that the component portions of the finished design are to so blend with each other and with the background or base upon which they are mounted that a pleasing effect will be achieved. It is preferred that prior to the application of the strip 6 to the material 5 certain of the threads which constitute the longitudinal warp thereof be removed from the parts adjacent the side edges of the strip, so that a frayed edge 7 is presented, the depth of which'should be such that most pleasing results willbe obtained. If necessary, a stitching member, such as a needle with a large eye, may now be affixed to one end of the strip, andthc latter is stitched through the body of the material 5. j j
Reference being particularly invited to Figs. 2 to l, it willbe noted in this fraying that that portion of the strip which. lies adjacent to andbeyond the outer face of the material 5 is preferably turned upon itself as at 8 at points adjacent the loop ends which are threaded through the body of the material. These portions whichare turned upon tllGIIlSOlVbEtDltY be flattened down by ironing so that the iiulividual loops will not have a rumpled appearance in the finished design, and by doing this any danger of the exposed design stripsbeingtoo taut, and, consequently, presenting an unsightly appearance, will be avoided.
While numerous different methods of stitching may be employed,the foregoing is given as illustrative, and if this process is employed itwill be noted, as in Figs. 8 and 4:, that the strip may cross over underneath the material 5, as at 9, so that each exposed stitch forms a unit of the complete design, and each hidden stitch (i. e., on the under side of-the material) provides a portion,
which bridges over to the'next adjacent or subsequent rent of the design.
position relatively to each other. In connection' with the frayed edges it is to be noted that by providing the same, and in addition to preventing a" subsequently unsightly appearance of the design due to further fraying, the strips furnishingthe thread will have an extremely soft outline.
From the foregoing it will be understood that the objects of this invention are achieved, and since certain changes in carrying out the above process, and certain modifications in the article which embody the invention may be made without departing from its'scope, it is intended that all matter contained lnthe above description or shown in the accompanying drawing shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limit ing sense. 7 V
It is also to be understood that thefollowing claims are intendedto cover all of the generic and specific features of the inventiontherein'described, and all statements of the scope of the invention which as a matter of language might be said to fall therebetween. a i
Having described myinvention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is: I q a 1. In the art of producing embroidery,
the method whichincludes the steps of tearlng a strip from a piece of material longitudinally of certain of the threads thereof,
fraying the edges of said strip, and "stitehing the same into a' base with thestitches of such length that no further fraying of the edge will take place; i i
2. As an article of manufacture,ornamentation, including a base carrying a flat frayed strip stitched through openings formed therein, the diameters of said openings being less than the widthof said strip and the length of the stitch being such as to prevent further fraying whereby the strip is of less effective width adjacent said openinns. 3. As an article of manufacture, ornamentation, including a base carrying a frayed strip stitched through openings therein, the.
lengthof strip allowed for each stitch being such as to prevent" further fraying and sub] stantially greater than the distancebetween the openings provided for the ends of" said stitch. i 1
a. An artificial flower comprising a base provided with perforations, a ribbon threaded through the perforations to provide loop portions on the upper side of the base.
5. An artificial flower comprising a base provided With perforations, a ribbon of a greater Width than the perforations threaded therethrough to provide loose portions on the upper side of the base.
6. An artificial flower comprising a base provided with perforations, a strip of flexible material threaded through the perforations to provide portions 011 the upper side of the base Which simulate the parts of a flower.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
