1 Claim.
This invention relates to a method of forming so-called swirled veils from straight veiling material.
Swirled veils of arcuate or annular form adapted for use in ladies hats in the position of visors and brims have been made by cutting the desired form from straight veiling material. By cutting, the selvage edge of the veiling is destroyed. The selvage edge is stronger and less likely to ravel, and it also affords a finish which cannot be provided when the veiling is cut. Frequently the selvage edge embodies an ornamental design which is lost if the veiling is cut.
It is the object of the present invention to provide a simple and efiective method of forming veils of arcuate and annular form from straight veiling material, in which the outer edge consists of the original selvage edge of the straight veiling material, preserving the ornamental design, if any, of the selvage edge.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent as it is better understood by reference to the following specification and accompanying drawing, in which Fig. 1 is a plan view of a strip of straight veiling material;
Fig. 2 is a similar view of the strip applied to a circular form; and
Fig. 3 is another similar view showing the completed annular veil on the form.
In carrying out the invention, a strip of veiling material consisting of cross threads 5 and 6 and a selvage edge 1 is prepared by cutting an ordinary strip of veiling longitudinally through its center. The inner edge 8 is therefore a cut or non-selvage edge. The strip may be of any desired length, depending upon the dimensions of the finished veil and whether it is arcuate or annular in form. The methods of forming arcuate and annular veils are identical and will be illustrated by the practice in producing an annular veil.
A form 9 of any suitable sheet material such as stiff cardboard or the like is provided, having an outer periphery l and an inner edge H. The selvage edge 1 of the strip of veiling is worked around the periphery of the form without stretching or deforming except to give the edge I the desired contour. The edge I is fastened to the form by pins or otherwise. In thus forming the strip, the inner edge 8 will become fluted or puckered as indicated in Fig. 2 of the drawing, and the strip of veiling will not be flat on the form.
Thereafter, with the aid of a hot iron, the veiling is gradually worked to bring the threads 5 and 6 into the relation indicated in Fig. 3 of the drawing. The strip is flattened and finally assumes the desired annular form with the original selvage edge I forming the periphery or outer arcuate edge of the veil, the inner edge being condensed to the dimension desired. In thus forming the veil, the strip becomes slightly wider, the original width of, for example, 4 inches becoming a radial width of 5+ inches.
The method as described is opposed to the practice heretofore employed of stretching the outer edge of a fabric to conform it to an arcuate periphery. Stretching of the selvage edge of veiling material deforms and weakens the selvage. Furthermore, if the selvage includes decorative features, the designs are ruined if the selvage is stretched and thus deformed.
The method as described affords an arcuate or annular veil with an outer selvage edge in its original state, but with the fabric otherwise shaped in arcuate or annular form and in a fiat condition. Elastic may be applied to the inner edge 8 of the finished veil to provide a so-called elastic swirled veil. Such veils can be used advantageously in trimming womens hats and for other purposes.
Various changes may be made in the procedure and produce as described without departing from the invention or sacrificing the advantages thereof.
I claim:
The method of forming swirled veils from straight veiling material which comprises securing the selvage edge of a strip of veiling to a support in an arcuate line and working the veiling inwardly to modify the mesh and to decrease the linear dimension of the inner edge until the 45 fabric is fiat, the outer selvage edge retaining its original linear dimension.
