Description

M. L. STANTON.
BUTTONHOLE GUIDE. APPLICATION FILED JAN.2B, 1910.
Patented May 31, 1910.
MARY L. STANTON, OF NEWTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
BUTTONHOLE-GUIDE.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARY L. STANTON, a citizen of the United States, of Newton, in the county of Middlesex and State. of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Buttonhole-Guides, of which the following, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a speci- .tication.
My invention relates to a sliding guide or gage for locating and determining the size of buttonholes, and consists in two graduated gages, one located at right angles to the other and adapted to adjustment one in relation to the other.
The object is to make a simple convenient guide for placing and sizing buttonholes. This object I attain by means of the construction shown in the accompanying drawings in which Figure l is a plan showing a part of a garment having one of my guides applied to it; Fig. 2 is a section of the same taken on line 2-2 of Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is a section of the same taken on line 33 of the same.
In the drawing G represents the garment in which the buttonholes are to be cut, C indicates the position of the first buttonhole, and A, B the edge of the garment. A sliding piece D, made of metal or some other similar material, represents the horizontal guide; this is graduated and folded so as to embrace the garment, one fold resting upon the outer side of the cloth and the other fold upon the inner side of the cloth of the garment. A longitudinal slot E is made in the outer fold of the guide as shown; a size gage H slides on the guide and serves to give the length of the buttonhole which is to be cut through the opening E Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed January 28, 1910.
Patented May 31, 1910.
Serial No. 540,679.
by the use of the ordinary buttonhole scissors, or may be a knife. The graduations indicated by the numerals 1, 2, 3 give the length of the buttonhole to be cut.
The vertical guide K stands at right angles to the part D, and slides upon it; the part K is also graduated as indicated by the numerals 1, 2, 3; these graduations are used to determine the distance apart of the buttonholes, thus if the buttonholes are to be three inches apart then the guide D is moved downward on the cloth until the graduation line 3 is in line with the buttonhole C. In other words, having the edge of the garment ready, slide the guide D down on the goods, and space the distance between the buttonholes by the part K, regulate the length of the buttonhole by the gage H, and cut, keeping the gage H at the same place until all of the buttonholes are worked.
Claim,
A buttonhole guide comprising a graduated guide piece adapted to embrace and slide upon the buttonhole edge of the garment and having a longitudinal opening centrally located thereon and having a sliding gage whereby the length of the buttonhole is determined, and a second graduated guide sliding upon the said guide piece whereby the space between the buttonholes is determined, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses, on this 24th day of January A. D. 1910.
MARY L. STANTON.

FRANK G. PARKER, JOHN BUOKLER.
