ABSTRACT:
A sewing machine attachment for automatically accomplishing a ruffling function is disclosed. Ruffling is performed by a finger means which is positioned to grip a fabric disposed on the work table of the sewing machine when the finger means is advanced toward the needle of the machine. Power for the ruffling operation is coupled by a rotatably mounted member to which the finger means is rotatably secured at a point removed from the axis of rotation of the member. In this manner the finger means is given a reciprocating ruffling motion.
The apparatus of the present invention is extremely advantageous inasmuch as it minimizes the number and weight of reciprocating parts. It is thus able to move efficiently and reliably at high speeds.
