  • Patent number: 5515544
    Abstract: A method of making and using a removable clothing conjoiner to attach the waistband of a pants or skirt to a user's shirt or blouse. The method takes a material which is made or dimensioned to be stiffer in one direction than the other and cuts the material so as to place that stiffer direction vertically, thereby preventing rolling, folding, or bunching of the material during use while allowing flexibility in the horizontal direction for wearer comfort. The base is coated with adhesive, and the adhesive is covered by removable liners which the user peels off when applying the conjoiner to his/her clothing.
