WAIST-LINING.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 325,697, dated September 8, 1885.

Application filed November 17, 1884. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, JULIA REINHARDT, a citizen of the United States, residing at St. Louis, and State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful Improved Dress or W'aist Lining, of which the following is a specification.

My invention is an improved dress or waist lining, ready-cut and self-fitting. More specifically stated, the objects of my invention are to provide a lining for ladies dresses or other garments having its exterior lines ready cut, all its lines for basting, 850., to consist of perforations made through the cloth material; further, each pattern composing the lining having its own waist-line to baste by also distinctly perforated, all of which will hereinafter more fully appear. I attain these objects by the waist-lining illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Sheet I, Figures 1 and 2 represent my improved waist-lining as it appears when fitted on the wearer, Fig. 1 being afront view, Fig. 2 a back View. Sheet II, Fig. 3 represents my waist-lining in the respective silesia or cloth pattern forms, showing the front, intermediate, and middle-back patterns, it being understood that each of said patterns is duplicated to constitute the waistlining complete. Fig. eireprescntsthe sleevelining, and in Fig. 5 the sleeve-patterns are shown separated.

A A represent the two front patterns, B B the two under arms, 0 C the two side backs, and D D the two middle backs, each cut, shaped, and directly out from silcsia or cloth.

In Sheet II, the full lines shown as the boundary to each pattern represent the ready-cut lines, or where said patterns are cut from the cloth.

In order that the basting can be on the waist-line, this is distinctly perforated by the row or line indicated by a: a: (see Fig. 3) and the notches on said waist-line. Further, I

provide each cloth pattern A B G D with lines or rows for basting purposes, said rows consisting of punched marks through the cloth, and presenting in appearance sewingmachine stitches with the thread left out.

The letter e indicates these distinctly outlined or punched haste-lines as forming a feature belonging to each pattern, and I lay stress upon the importance and usefulness of these punched rows for basting, as they serve to guide and properly direct the basting for the seams, which can thus be done quickly, decisively, without mistake, and avoiding the well-known inconveniences experienced in seeking to baste the usual allowance of oneinch margin from the cut edge of'the cloth or pattern. Not only are the waist-line x :r, and haste-lines e, but also the darts f, so distinctly perforated. (See Fig. 3.)

G G represent the sleeve-patterns. These I also provide each with the haste-lines g g, distinctly punched or outlined, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5. My dress or waist lining, therefore, is ready out of silesia in all colors, having each pattern A B O, 820., properly cut, shaped, and relatively adapted to each other; further, having the waist-line x a, all baste-lines 6, including darts f, outlined with perforated marks and fitted for basting directly on the dress-goods. In case the waist is to be made larger or smaller, change only the seam next to the front darts, in contradistinction to the old method of changing all the seams. After the garment is fitted the darts are cut out, as indicated.

My invention not only practically saves time, labor, and expense, but it can be suited to all sizes or bust-numbers, and in all cases insures a most completeand perfect-fitting waist lining; also, my invention greatly facilitates the manufacture of these linings, since a large quantity of the cloth for the making of certain bust-numbers canbepiled on top of each other and be accurately cut and shaped also, the perforations throughout each pattern can be made at one and the same time by suitable mechanism.

'What I claim is The improved dress or waist lining composed of the front, under arms, side backs, middle backs, and sleeve parts, all of cloth,

with the external lines ready out, further darts, substantially as and for the purposes having the waist line consisting of one conset forth. IO tinuous line of perforations (of the character In testimony whereof I have hereunto set of sewing machine stitches with the thread my hand.
