FABRIC'S COORDINATOR FOR QUILTING

This invention is a tool used to coordinate fabrics by creating a simulated quilt unit for visualizing the final design of quilting pattern(s). It consists of various geometric shapes such as a circle, square, star, or octagon. Small pieces of fabric, including scrap fabric, will be used to wrap around the sections of the various geometric shapes. These will be held together by pin- like device or other means to hold and/or rotate all or some of these geometric shapes together. The coordinator allows displaying and testing the final appearance of the design of the quilt unit. The quilt designer uses this tool to create a simulated quilt unit to visualize the final product in the early stage of the quilt's project and will give the designer satisfaction and confidence in their design. The designer will see the final appearance of the product at the beginning of the project. This, in turn, will save money and time for quilt designers.

METHOD FOR STITCHING PATTERN

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method of stitching a pattern on fabric employs a piece of interwoven netting having rows of square holes and the desired pattern printed thereon. The netting is attached to the fabric so that the pattern on the netting directly overlies the area on the fabric where the pattern is to be reproduced. The pattern is then stitched onto the fabric using a needle and embroidery threads. The stitch that is used is a cross-stitch wherein the thread is pushed up from the inside surface of the fabric and through the center of a hole in one row of the netting and then crossed over an intersection of the netting on a 45° angle to the threads forming the netting. The thread is then pulled down through a hole in an adjacent row and through the fabric. Upon completion of the stitched pattern, the netting is removed by drawing out the threads thereof one strand at a time. A kit is also provided to enable one to carry out this method.
