ABSTRACT:
A piece of textile goods is selvedged along an edge extending between ends of the piece by gripping a strip of the piece offset from the edge and displacing it parallel to the edge at a constant travel speed such that successive portions of the edge pass through a plurality of folding stations followed by a sewing station. The edge is folded over as it passes through the folding stations and the folded-over edge is stitched together in the sewing station. The portions are gripped in each station upstream of the sewing station as they pass through. To eliminate an out-of-square condition the gripped portion is advanced when it is adjacent one end of the goods at a speed that is greater than the constant travel speed, the gripped portion is advanced when it is adjacent the other end of the goods at a speed which is less than the constant travel speed, and the gripped portion is advanced when it is offset the ends of the goods at a speed which is substantially equal to the constant travel speed.
