ONE-PIECE sLEEvE AND WAIST.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Aug. 3, 1920.

Application filed August 9, 1919; Serial No. 316,323.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, SARA E.,SLOAN,'2L citizen of the United States, residing at the city and county of Denver and State of Colorado, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in One-Piece Sleeves and Waists; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the characters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification. This invention relates to garments and is especially designed for the so-called kimono Waist. I

The object of the invention is to provide a waist which may be cutfrom one piece of goods and may be so put together that theseams at the side of the waist and along the sleeve will not interfere with themovements of the wearers arms andwill not be torn or stretched out of shape by such movements.

In the drawings:

Figure 1 is a pattern of the waist and sleeve as cut from the goods.

Fig. 2 showsthe waist and sleeve par tially assembled.

Fig. 3 shows the waist and sleeve in completed form. g

The device comprises the front portions 10, the back 12 and the sleeves 14, the neck being cut out at 16 as shown. Each sleeve has a longitudinally extending strip represented by the bracket 18, this strip being of a width equal to the lengthof the edge 20, which is formed by cutting into the goods beyond the edge of the sleeve to the point 22. Similarly each front portion 10 has a strip represented by the bracket 24, which has a width equal to the length of the edge 120, which is formed by cutting into the goods beyond the edge of the front to the point 23.

The strip 18 when the waist is put together, forms the under part of the sleeve, and the strip 24 forms the side of the waist. In assembling, the corner 122 of the front 10 is brought into position at the point 22,

and the edge 28 of the back 12 is brought 1nto contact with the edge 128 of the front 10 to form a seam' 228, as in Figs. 2 and 3,

' the sleeve'being then in the position shown inFig. 2. The corner 123 of the sleeve is then brought down under the sleeve proper to the point 23 and the edges 20 and 120 are stitched together to form a seam 220, as in Fig. 3. The sleeve edges 26 and 126 are then stitched together to form a seam 226.

In Fig. 1, the line 'SS represents the top shoulder line of the waist. In Figs. 2 and 3 the lines CC represent the center side line of the garment, this line passing centrally through the armpit.

From the foregoing, it will be seen that each side of the waist is put together by means of one continuous seam, which extends up the side at the rear of the central side line CC to the armpit, thence horizontally forward to a point forward of said line C*(), and thence to the end of the sleeve. is so located with respect to the various parts of the sleeve and waist that a very efiicient hinge joint is formed which will permit the wearer to raise and lower the arms without restriction and without stretching the seam and without stretching or tearing the waist.

I claim: 1. A one-piece sleeve and waist pattern, comprising, when lying flat, a sleeve portion having two longitudinal edges and one By this construction the seam 220 free end, a waist-back portion extending I laterally of one of said longitudinal edges, and a ,waist-front portion extending lat-' erally of the other of said longitudinal edges, said sleeve portion being partially severed from one of'said waist portions adjacent oneof said longitudinal edges on a line substantially perpendicular to said one edge, and theother of said waist portions being partiallysevered from the sleeve por tion adjacent the other longitudinal edge on a line substantially parallel with said other edge.

2. A one-piece sleeve and waist pattern, comprising, when lying flat, a sleeve portion having two longitudinal edges and one free end a waist-back portion extending laterally of one of said longitudinal edges, and a Waist-front portion extending laterally of the other of said longitudinal edges, said sleeve portion being partially severed from said Waist-back portion adjacent one'of said longitudinal edges on a line substantially perpendicular to said one edge, and the Waist-front portion being partially severed from the sleeve portion adjacent the. other longitudinal edge on a line substantially parallel with said other edge. In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.

' SARA E. SLOAN.
