US Patent No. 865,640, granted 10 September 1907 to Hermann Häberer of Rodewisch, Germany, for a method of making embroidery on a removable ground fabric. The ground is woven with bourette (waste silk) threads whose burls keep the fabric from stretching during machine embroidery. After embroidering, the ground is dissolved with caustics such as soda. The patent describes three ground variants (bourette in both warp and weft, weft only, or warp only, the other system being worsted) and gives four claims, with a drawing sheet of three figures.
