Patent attributes
The present invention provides an embroidery holder assembly that includes a metal frame that fits within an embroidery hoop used in an embroidery machine. Magnets are used to hold fabric to the metal frame in the embroidery hoop, wherein the magnet may be repositioned along the metal frame. The holder assembly includes a holder plate that fits over the metal frame within the embroidery hoop and holds the fabric between itself and the metal frame. The holder plate has a cutout section that defines an embroidering area in which the embroidering machine stitches a pattern. The holder plate also has slots on the sides that overlie the metal frame. The magnets are placed in these side slots to secure the holder plate to the metal frame and can be repositioned along the length of the peripheral slots.
