DRESS-CHART.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 379.354. dated lflarch 13, 1888.

Application filed November 18, 1887. Scnal No. 255,526. No model.)

.To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we. FAJWEL FELs and DOROTA SIMON, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented a new and Improved Chart for Ladies Garments, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to an improved chart for aiding scholars and others in cutting out ladies garments, such as wraps dolmans, basques, 8:0.

The invention consists in the various fea turns of improvement more fully pointed out in the claims. t

The accoin panyi ng drawing represents a face view of our improved chart.

In laying out our improved chart we make use of several auxiliary lines, which greatly facilitate the construction of the chart.

To produce the chart we proceed in the following manner, it being of course understood that the chart varies in proportion with different sizes: Draw horizontal line A and intersect it at center. A, by vertical line B. easure from A upward on line B the length of under arm to point B, through which draw horizontal line C. Lay Off five thirty-seconds of the arm-size and measure it on line B from point B upward to point B through which draw horizontal line D. Draw another horizontal line E, above line D, and at the same distance from said line as line C. Take the distance between lines C D. Lay it off on line A to the right of point A to point A through which draw upward the vertical line F until it intersects line E at F. Take half of the back bust-measure. Lay it off on line A to the right of point A to point A through which'draw vertical line G the entire measure of the back length to point G This line intersects line B at point G. Take half of bustmeasure. Add quarter of an inch. Lay it off on line Eto the left of point G to point E, through which draw vertical line H the entire length of front measure. From point G lay off to left horizontally one-eighth of an inch less than one-half of neck-measure, thus obtaining line G" and point G. Connect the points G and B" by line I, which is extended downward half an inch below line C. Meas ure from point E on line E to right one-fourth of an inch less than one-fourth of neck-measure to point Fr, from which measure upward one-fourth of an inch more than one fourth of v E by a curve, which constitutes the front neck 5 curve. Connect points F (intersection oflines EF) with pointE Lay off on such line Jfrom point E the length of shoulder-measure E E and oneincli topoint E Lay off on line Afroin point A to the left half an inch to point A which connect with point G", thus obtaining line K. From the point E measure down the length of front to point E. For every half-inch which poi nt E is beneath point E (intersection of lines A H) lay off on line B from point A up ward oneeighth of an inch to point B Connect points E B, which is the front half of the waistline P. Measure ladys back from point G down line K beyond point A to point K. Connect points B K, which is the rear half of the waist-line P. Measure one and onehalf inch to left of point K on line P to point 1. Lay off on line P three-fourths of an inch to the right of line F to point 2. Two inches to the right of point 2 on line P niark'point 3. Measure on line Ffrom point F (intersection of lines F D) down half an inch to point F Connect points 1 F by a curve, 11. This curve intersects line C at point C. Connect points C and 3 by a curve, 13. Lay off on line J to the left of point E threefourths of an inch to point E Connect points B E Lay off on this line from point E the length of shoulder-measure, thus obtaining point D Lay off on line D to right of point D (intersection of lines D H) half of chest-measure to point D Lay off distance between point B and line A on line B above point B to point B. Lay offfrom point F (intersection oflines F I) on line I to the right one'fourth of an inch to point F Connect points E D D B, F and F bya curve which constitutes the arm-hole curve 75. Take half of the distance between points F and F Lay it off from point F on arm-curve to point F. Connect points F 2 by a curve, 12. Lay off on line A from point E to the right half of chestmeasure and mark point 15. Lay off half the distance between points 15 E to left of point 15 to point 16. Bisect distance between points 16 E to obtain point 19. Bisect distance between points 16 15 to obtain point 20. Mark points 17 18 to left and right of point 16 about quarter of an inch. Bisect distance 16 19 to obtain point 21. Bisect distance 18 20 to obtain point 22. Mark point 23 one-half an inch to right of point 20. Draw vertical lines 24 25 through points 21 22 and measure off on these lines from line A upward the length of the darts, the line 25 being one-half inch longer than line 24, to obtain points 26 27. Connect, by curves 53, 54, 55, and 56, the points 27 19 27 17 26 18 26 23 26 to obtain curves of darts. Add the distances K 1 1 2 17 18 E 19, and lay off the sum on line P from 23 to the right in addition to half the waist-measure to obtain point L. Take half the distance between points L 23, subtract half an inch,and lay this off on line P to-the left of point L to obtain point M. Draw nearlyupright line M up from point M to arm-curve 75. Draw line L from point L up to point F Mark point E on line Eone-quarter of an inch to right of point E. Mark point E half an inch below line C and half an inch to the left of line H. Mark point E on line A one-fourth of an inch to right of E Connect points E E E by a curve, 76,which is the bust-curve. Measure down from B on line B the height of hip to point 28. Draw horizontal line 29 through such point. This is the hip-line. Extend the lines G H and lines 24 25 downward to the horizontal base-line 30, which they intersect at the points 31 32 33 34. Lay off quarter of an inch to right and left of points 33 34 on line to obtain points 35 36 37 38. Connect these points, respectively, with points 19, 17,18, and 23 by lines 39 40 41 42. Lay offon line 29 halfan inch to right of point 43 (intersection of lines G 29) to obtain point 44. Draw line 45 from K through 44 and extend it downward to line 30. Mark point 46 on line 29 one inch to the left of perpendicular line passing through point 1. Draw line 47 through points 46 and land extend it to the base-line. Draw line 48 from point 3 down to line 30, sloping an inch to right on line 29. Draw line from point 2 to line 30, sloping oneinch to the left on line 29. Draw line 50 from point L down to line 30. sloping one and three-fourths inch to the right on line 29. Draw line 51 from point M down to line 30, sloping one and three-fourths inch to the left on line 29. Draw line 52 from point M down to line 30, sloping one and threefourths inch to the right on line 29.
