stitched fabric article.

- One of the objects of theinvention is to pro* vide a piece of fabric having two or more layers, 5 said layers being connected by means of blind stitches, said stitches skipping one of said layers of material at predetermined intervals, in order to simulate a hand stitch.

Other objects of this invention will be set forth the following description and drawing which illustrate a preferred embodiment thereof, it being understood that the above general This invention relates to a new and improved statement of the objects of this invention is intended merely to generally explain the same and not to limit it in any manner.

Fig. 1 is a plan view illustrating the improved stitched fabric.

Fig. 2 is a sectional view on the line 2-2 Fig. 1.

Fig. 3 is a sectional view on the line 33 of Fig. 1. I

Fig. 4 is a rear plan view of Fig. 1.

Figs. 5 and 6 are detail sectional views showing how the blind stitches are caused to skip 5 the face layer of the stitched fabric at suitable predetermined intervals. This application is a continuation of our 'application Ser. No. 569,234, filed on Oct. 16, 1931.

In this particular embodiment the stitched fabric has a face layer A, a rear layer C, and an intermediate layer B. However, the invention applies to a stitched fabricflhaving two or more layers of material, and the invention is not limited to. an article in which said layers are integral.

Figs. 5 and 6 conventionally illustrate the needle N of any suitable blind-stitch sewing machine, and said figures also illustrate any suitable means for forming the fold or bight in the layers of material, in order to form the blind stitches.

We have illustrated a plunger P which is one of the well known devices for producing said fold or bight, but we do not wish to be limited to any specific means for forming said fold or bight.

As shown in Fig. 5, only the layers B and C may be presented to the needle N, so that the blind stitch only passes through said layers B and C, and said blind stitch is invisible upon the exterior surface of the'layer A/In Fig. 6, .the needle N is represented as passing through the three layers of fabric, so as to form a stitch which is visible upon the exposed surface of the layer A.

The invention applies particularly to a heni in which the thread isvisible at spaced pointsD,

the layers B and C being connected to ether intermediate the points D, in any desired relation. When the parts are in the position shown in Fig. 5, stitches 1111 are formed which only pass through the layers B and C. When the parts are in the position shown in Fig. 6, stitches 10a are formed and said stitches pass through the layer A so that said stitches are visible at the points D. Any desired spacing of the points D can be utilized. Referring to Fig. 1, it will be noted that the stitches 10a and 11a areformed along substantially the same straight line. Thepoints D are along the same straight line, in order to properly imitatethe effect of hand sewing. However, 7 we do not wish to-be limited to an article of manufacture in which the stitches at the points D, have the linear relationship which is shown herein. Referring to Fig. 3, the layer B forms an inturned end portion of layer C. The stitches 7 11a, which miss layer A, have loops which overlap the common inner edge of layers B and C, as shown in Fig. 1. The stitches 10a, which pass through the face layer, are laterally and outwardly spaced from the common inner edge of 31 layers B and C. Whenever we refer to the improved article of manufacture as having at least three layers, it is to be understood that we include an article which may have more than three layers.

' We have shown a preferred embodiment of our invention, but it is clear that numerous 1 changes and omissions can be made without departing from its spirit.

We claim: 1. A stitched fabric article comprising a base fabric layer and a superposed fabric layer having an inturned edge portion, the layers of said edge portion being connected to each other by stitches which miss the base layer, said stitches having loops which overlap the inner edge of said edge portion, said layers of said edge portion being connected to the base portion by stitches which pass through said base, layer and are visible at the exposed face of said face layer, the last mentioned stitches passing through said base layer at points which are outwardly and laterally spaced from the inner edge of said edge portion.

2. A stitched fabric article comprising a base fabric layer and a superposed fabric layer having an inturned edge portion, the layers of said edge portion being connected to each other by stitches which miss the base layer, said stitches having loops which overlap the inner edge of said edge portion, said layers of said edge portion being connected to the base portion by stitches which pass through said base layer and are visible at the exposed face of said base layer, the last mentioned stitches passing through said base layer at points which are outwardly and laterally spaced from the inner edge of said edge portion,

all said stitches being located along substantially the same straight line. v

3. A stitched fabric article comprising a plurality of layers of fabric, said layers being connected to each other by stitches which are invisible at the face of one of said layers, and by stitches which are visible at said face and which pass through the layer which has said face, the

first mentioned stitches having loops which overfirst mentioned stitches having loops which overlap the edge of one of said layers, the second mentioned stitches being outwardly and laterally spaced from the edgeof one of said layers.
