ABSTRACT:
A fabric illuminated by the outer ends of a large number of optical fibers associated with the outer surface of the fiber in a manner to form an illuminated changing display of several figures. The fibers extend along the inner surface of the fabric, and the inner ends of a plurality of fibers are gathered into several bundles each of which engages a connector housing having a plurality of light sources. The light sources connect with a power source and an electronic control device which sequentially causes each light source to be activated in a programmed manner. Each illuminated light source emits light to the inner ends of fibers of the light sources associated bundle of fibers. The light travels through each fiber of the bundle to the outer ends of the fibers thereof where the light is emitted sequentially with the light from the ends of fibers of other bundles in the manner programmed by the electronic control device to form an illuminted changing decorative display of several figures.
