COMBINATION CUTTING CHART AND TRANSFER PATTERN a Applicationled September 21, 1927. Serial No. 221,087.

My invention relates to a new and improved combination cutting chart and transferpattern.

One of the objects of my invention is to 6 provide a combination device of the type above specified which will furnish the user with a complete guide for cutting out and sewing agarment.

. Another object of my invention is to provide a combination device of this type which will serve as a complete guide for seaming the garment, and-for supplying a smocking pattern; a cross-stitch design, shirring or any other desired decoration or finish for the garment. I

Other objects of my invention will set forth in the following description and draw-- ing which illustrate a preferred embodiment thereof, it being understood that the above general statement o f the objects of my invention` is intended merely to generally eX- plainthe same and n ot to limit it in any Fig. 1 diagrammatically illustrates a cutting chart. l x

Fig. 2 diagrammatically illustrates a cutting and sewing transfer applied to the three pieces of material which have been cut or torn according to the cutting chart shown in Fig. 1. This shows Figs/1 and 3 combined.

Fig. 3 diagrammatically illustrates a cutting-out and sewing guide.

A numberjof different types of garments, especially childrens Vgarm`ents,"are best made if the lateral edges of the lengths of material respectively required for the front, back, sleeves and other portions of the garment have a fllerthread or threads pulledout before cutting or tearing the material into the desired lengths. If theedge of each piece has f This pattern could be placed at the top of either the front or the back pieces. This would enable a pattern nine (9) inches deep to be utilized for making a dress of this type of any suitable length, which could be from 27 to 40 inches. y

According to my invention, the cutting chart shown in Fig. 1 has a portion 1 corresponding to the front width orfront piece of the garment which, for example, may be 32 inches long and 30 inches wide. It also has a portion 2 corresponding to the back piece or back width of the garment, which has the same dimensions as the portion 1.

The portion 3 of the chart may correspond to the material necessary for the sleeves of the garment and this, for example, may be 28 inches wide and 16 inches long.

It s to be understood that I do not limit myself t-o the speciiic figures mentioned in the., specication as these are only given by way of example.

" Fig. 2 shows the result of applying the cutting and sewing transfer to the three pieces of I material which have been cut or torn according to the chart shown in Fig. 1.

The decorations 4 may be of any suitable type, such as French knots or the like.

In the'cutting and sewing guides shown in Fig. 3, the panel or portion 5 corresponds to the front of the garment, the panel or portion 6 corresponds to the back of the garment, and the panels 7 andl 8 correspond to the sleeves of .thel garment. It-is"assumed that the length of 'the panels 5 and 6 is 36 inches and that the total width of the panels 5, 6 and 7 is 27 inches. y i

The portions 9 and 10 correspond to the collar of the garment, and the portions 11 and 12 correspond to the cuffs of the garment..

In order to practically ycarry ,outv the invention, the cutting and sewing guides should be printed with a transfer ink (as shown in'` U. S. Patent No. 1,590,648, for example) so that the entire pattern for cutting, sewing `and smocking a garment, or cutting, sewing and decorating a garment in any manner whatever may be transferred either by a hot iron, by pressure alone, or by the use of any solvent material, to the end of each piece or intended to assist the ornamentation of the garment. y

According to myimproved method wherebythe cutting and sewing guides are com. bined, easy and accurate results are secured and a great deal of time is saved. In addition'to the increased accuracy of'thework, another advantage of my method is that the upon separately. For example, if crossstitch or embroidery ornamentation .is desired upon the front of the garment or any part thereof, this front piece can be finished before the garment is put ltogether, which saves unnecessary handling of 'the-other. pieces and contributes to the 'ease of working.

My invention also produces a marked economy in manufacture because the composite abbreviated pattern shown in Fig. 3, for example, and indicated' on' a small-cut.- ting chart as shown in Fig. 2 to designate, the length of material to be cut,' supplies everything necessary: In the old method it was necessary tohave two large paper patterns, one for the entire garment and another for xthe smo'eking, embriodery, decoration, etc.

I prefer to include a guide for two sizes upon a singlepattern, although this is not necessary. 'This couldY be readily done by printing a pattern with a solid line and a broken line, the solid line being used as the 4cutting line for the larger size, for example,

and the broken line being used for the sewing or seam line therefor. 'For the smaller sue, the broken line could be used as the cutting line and the sewing line would be the desired seam line within it.'

In order to gtilize theabbreviated pattern disclosed herein, the material 'is first' cut along a line where a filler thread or threads different pieces of the.l garment can be worked principles of the invention and without vsacriicing its chief advantages.

I claim: l i y 1. A garment pattern adapted to be sold as such and applied by the purchaser to a suitable piece of textile material, the pattern having printed thereon, in a transferable medium, ornamental markings and cutting lines in proper relationship, whereby the ornamental markings and cutting lines may be applied in that same relationship to any desired textile material by the purchaser in a single transferring operation.

2. A garment pattern adapted toC be sold as such and applied by the purchaser to a suitable piece of-textile material, the pattern having printed thereon, in a transferable medium, ornamental markings and cutting lines in proper relationship for one endonly of the garment part, whereby the pattern is substantially smaller in area than the gar-- ment pa'rt to be produced therefrom and wherebythe ornamental markings and cutting lines may be applied in the relationship appearing .on the pattern to any desired textile material by the purchaser in a single transferring operation, ythe single 'pattern being thereby adapted to be used in producing garment parts of various sizes.

3. A garmentvpattern adapted to be'sold as such and applied by the purchaser to a suitable piece of textile material, the pattern having printed thereon, in a transferable thereby adapted to beused infp'roducinggarh ment parts of various sizes. y In testimony whereof I aiix my signature.
