- This invention relates to improvements in beaded fabrics used forbeaded bags, dresses,

umbrella handles, boxes, hats and the like,

the object of the invention being to providean ornamental fabric 111 which the design 1s; formed by applying the beads in such a way applied beads the foundation of the gapsbeing of a contrasting color so as to produce an ornamental and novel effect.

In Figures'Z and-3 is shown the method of sewing the strung beads to the backing which consists of running thethread a through a single head or through two head s,then in- I serting the thread in the backing and'bringing it up again through the cloth and then through the. beads again.

For a more general understanding of the invention attention is now called to the draw ings in which a preferred embodiment is shown illustrated. In these drawings like parts are designated by like reference characters in all the views.

Figure 1 is a view of the finished beaded fabric showing the executed design. j

Figure 2 is a view of the method of sewing the strung beads to the foundation.

Figure 3 is a section on line 3 3 of Figure 2. r

Figure 4: isa view of the foundation of the design in the form of stitches or embroidery.

Figure 5 is a view of a modified form of the foundation'of the design printed onthe backing.

Figure '6 is another modification of the i11- vention showing the design chalk marked on a piece of colored cloth and the cloth sewed to the backing. e j Referring now to the drawings iirdetail number 1 designates the backing of the fabric and 2 a stitch or embroidery formed in the backing. The stitch or embroidery may describe a certain ornamental design and the thread may be colored in order. to give a novel efiect to the finished product. Around the stitch 2 are sewna series of threaded beads 3 strung on a thread 4;. The space oc= and closely surround the stitch.

cupied by the stitches or embroidery is left open thus forming a gap 5 andexpo'slng same to the-surface. i

sewingthe strung beads to the backing which consists of applying a cross stitch 6 between I each or several of the beads across the thread on which the beads strung'thus securely fastening the structure to the backing.

In Figure 5 is shown a modification of the device whereby thedesign 7 is printed directly on the backing in lieu of being stitched I and the beads appliedin the samemanneras shown in Figure 1. i V In Figure .6 dis 1 disclosed another modifica tion whereby a colored cloth 8 is sewn to the backing and a design 9 chalk marked on the cloth. The beads are then'sewn around the.

chalk mark as in the previous modifications and the chalk then removed exposing the colored backing to the surface. If found expedient the colored cloth may be dispensed with and the design'chalked marked fdirectly on the backing; r

It will thus be seen that I have provided anorname ntal and novel method of making beaded fabric having goodwearing qualities and which can be manufactured at a rela-' tively small cost. The coloring of the bottom of the gaps may be different than the color' Y of the beads so as to create a contrast. This. feature however may be optional- Due to the flexibility of the threaded beads very intricate designs may be easily executed. descrlbed my invention, I

Having thus claim 1 V I 1; In a beaded fabric of the class described, a backing having a stitch sewed thereon and a v V series of beads sewed around said stitch, the
