EMBROIDERY.

No. 322,386. Patented July 14. 1885.

UNITED STATES PATENT @Erica JOHN KRSI, 0F ST. GALL, SWITZERLAND.

EMBROIDERY.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 322,386, dated July 14, 1885.

Application filed April 1, 1885. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, JOHN KRsI, a citizen of the Republic of Switzerland, residing at St. Gall, in Switzerland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Embroideries, of which the follow'ingis a specification, which is to be constructed by reference to the drawings attached thereto, and in which Figure I is a plan view of a piece of ernbroidery of my improved manufacture. Fig. Il is a cross-section taken on the line l 2, and Fig. III is a similar view taken on the line 3 4.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the gures.

My invention has relation to the manufactnre of embroidery adapted for the use of flounces, trimmings, and similar purposes 5 and it consists in the improved method of manufacture, which will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.

In the accompanying drawings, the-letter a denotes apiece of embroidered cloth, of any suitable kind, which is to form the foundation ot' my improved embroidered fabric. This is embroidered with any suitable design, as

shown at c. Upon this piece of fabric a is placed another piece of fabric, b, upon which a suitable design (shown at b) has been embroidered.

The two parts or pieces, a and b, are so placed together that the points marked c c2 c3 will register with one another, the said points having been previously marked upon both pieces' of fabric a and b. By this arrangement of the points or indicators I cause the embroidered design upon the piece b to fall into its proper place relative to the design embroidered upon the piece a, as shown in the drawings. This being done, the two pieces of fabric a and b are passed under the needle of the embroidering-machine, and a suitable design (marked don the drawings) is embroidered over all, so as to connect the pieces a and b.

Itis obvious that the piece b, with its design, is placed upon that side of the piece a which is to be the under side, and which, therefore, is not exposed to view, and that the embroidered design d, by which the two parts a and b are stitched permanently together, is to be upon the face orfront side of the fabric. After Athis has been done, that portion of the two pieces of fabric a and b which projects beyond the edge ofthe embroidery is carefully cut away, so as to expose the edges 0f the embroidery, as shown in the drawings.

By this method very artistic and beautiful `effects may be attainedin this class of embroidery at small expense; and proper care being taken to place the two pieces 0f embroidered fabric a and b properly together in the manner described, it will appear to the eye as it' the entire embroidered design was executed upon a single piece of cloth.

Having thus described my invention, I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States-,-

The improved method of manufacturing embroideries, consisting in arranging pieces of embroidered fabric upon other embroidered pieces of fabric so that the design of the several separate pieces form a harmonious design as a whole, and thereupon securing the several layers ct' embroidered fabric by means of embroidery stitches upon the face of the material, the said stitches entering into the composition of and forming part of the entire embroidery, as and for the purpose shown and set forth.

In testimony whereof I have signed this application in the presence of two subscribin g witnesses.
