This invention relates to novel and improved means for making a decorative design.
One of the objects of this invention is to provide an improved shaping device or pattern which is arranged and adapted to be fastened in the desired position on a piece of material, and then has various colored layers of yarn looped thereover in making a decorative design, this device further comprising guide means for accurately guiding the cutting instrument in cutting the loops of yarn, in order to produce an evenly unfolding and symmetrical design.
Another object of this invention is to provide a shaping device which is especially arranged and adapted to be firmly secured in the desired position on the piece of material, so that the device will not move out of this position while the yarn is being looped over the device in making the decorative design. 20 Another object of this invention is to provide these shaping devices in sets of differently formed devices or patterns, whereby a variety of decorative designs, such as floral designs, geometric designs, figures, letters, etc., can be quickly and easily made on a piece of suitable material, such as cloth, paper, composition, and the like.
A further object of this invention is to provide an improved method in conjunction with this improved means, for making an ornamental design with accuracy and with ease and without requiring any special training or skill for making the same.
These and various other objects and advantages are attained with this invention, as will become apparent from the following description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing in which the invention is shown in its preferred form of construction, it being understood that Various other arrangements and forms may be resorted to for carrying out the objects and purposes of this invention.
In the drawing: Fig. 1 is a plan view illustrating my improve shaping device in a floral form, secured upon a piece of material preparatory to making the decorative design thereon.
Fig. 2 is a plan view illustrating several progressive steps involved in the method of making this decorative design.
Fig. 3 is a plan view illustrating the finished design.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged cross-sectional view on line 44 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view on line 5-5 of Fig. 3.
Fig. dis a View of another improvedshaping device, for producing a different floral design than that of Fig. 3.
Figs. 7, 8, 9, and illustrate this invention applied, respectively, to a circular figure, a letter, a numeral, and a leaf.
These shaping devices or patterns are made of thin sheet-like material, preferably of rust-proof metal, such as copper, brass, aluminum or tin; also of celluloid, ivory, hard rubber, and the like. I also prefer to provide them in sets, each set containing several diiferent shaped devices, as indicated by the several devices illustrated in the drawing. These devices generally include rel atively slender arms or branch portions over which the yarn is looped in securing it upon the piece of material for making the design.
In Figs. 1, 2, and 4 is illustrated a shaping device H which is of thin sheet-like material and includes four arms l2 curving outwardly from its central part 83. It is adapted for making a floral design.
A guide groove in the form of a depressed channel M is provided on each arm, extending from a point near the end of the arm to said central part l3, and this groove is positioned along the center line longitudinally of the arm, whereby to guide the point of the scissors or cutting instrument exactly along the center line of the arm while the loops of yarn are being cut. The previously proposed shaping devices lacked such guide channels, and thus induced the finished designs to be made unsymmetrical.
A small opening I5 is provided adjacent the end of one or more of these arms, thru which thread I6 is stitched for securing the device in the exact position where it is desired onthe piece of material ll, so that the shaping device will not shift or move out of place while the yarn is being looped over the first arm at the beginning of the loop-forming operation, as is the case with devices of this kind heretofore known. An opening it may also be provided in the central part [3, adapted to receive threads !9 in holding this device on the piece .of material.
Concerning the method of making the decorative design in accordance with this invention, as indicated by several steps shown in Fig. 2 of the drawing, the yarn 2| of a certain color is first looped over the arm I2, after the device has been secured with stitching IS in the desired position on the material, as outlined above. The ends of the loops are stitched thru the piece of material, at one side of arm l2, as best shown in Fig. 4, and are then brought back over the arm and to form the central tuft 24 inthis floral design,
stitched in the material at the opposite side of said arm. This is repeated until an entire layer of this color of yarn covers the arm, as indicated at l2 at the lower left-hand side of Fig. 2.
A layer of yarn 22 of a different color than said layer 2| is then looped over said first layer, as indicated in Fig. 4 and at the upper left-hand corner of Fig. 2. This provides a design of two colors when completed. If more colors are desired in the design, then a further layer or layers of different colored yarn will be applied over these first two layers indicated in the drawing. A cutting instrument, preferably a pair. of scis-. sors, is then utilized; The point of the scissors is placed in said guide groove l4 and is guided along the groove while the loops of yarn 2| and 22 are being cut. These guide grooves on the arms provide for an accurate cutting of the yarn on the upper face of each arm and along the 1on gitudinal center line of the arm, so that the strands of yarn will unfold evenly and equally toward both sides of the centerjline 23, to'provide a symmetrically appearing and evenly tufted ornamental design, as shown in Figs. 3 and 51 In the form of shaping deviceshown' in Fig. 1 the loops of yarn are also stitched thru the central opening I 8 and are cut at the top, in order as shown in Fig. 3. The threads 16 and 19, whereby the shaping device has been secured upon the piece of mate: rial ll, are then cut and the device is withdrawn from the unfolding design wherein the yarn has spread and tufted, as best shown in Figs. 3 and 5, thereby providing a vari -colored, tufted and entirely symmetrical decorative design;
Various forms of shaping devices are provided, several of which are shown in the other figures of thedrawing, for producing the various desired designsand are equipped with guide grooves and with openings for fastening the device on the material, similar to the form described above.
Fig. 6 illustrates a shaping device 3| having branches or arms 32 provided Withguide grooves 34 extending longitudinally and centrally of their top faces. Openings 35' are provided near the lar plate provided with a guide groove 44 extend-' ing centrally of the arm, and has openings 15 therein for receiving securing stitches, like the preceding forms;
'Fig. 8 illustrates a shaping device Si in the 7 form of a letter, which has a guide groove 5 in its stem and a groove 54' in its upper bar por- ..tion- Openings. 55 are provided for receiving stitches to hold the device in position.
' 'Fig. 9' illustrates a shaping device 5! in the I iorm of a numeral consisting of a continuous slender body portion, being provided with a guide groove 64 centrally of its upper face, and with securing openings 65 adjacent the ends thereof. FigIlO illustrates a shaping device H in the form of a leaf, which is provided with guide groove 14 on its upper face, and has securing openings"; for receiving stitches, as in the pre ceding forms. 7 V V In either of these'forins the guide grooves tend centrally of the slender body part or of the arms, toproperly guide the scissors in cutting the loopsthereon, and provide an evenly unfolded and symmetrical design.
' I claim:
A device for making adecorative. design on'a piece of fabric, said device being of thin sheet metal and comprising a slenderportion having small openings therein for receiving stitching to secure the device on the material and hold it in place duringjthe beginning of the looping opera" tion, said slender. portion being depressed only along its center line providing a guide channel
