ABSTRACT:
An embroidery frame having generally rectangular shaped side members and front and back members that define the perimeter of the frame, a clamp that is integrated with and extends across the front member of the frame having ends that attach to the respective side members. A cross member extends across the approximate mid-section of the frame, has ends that attach to the respective side members and includes a plurality of vertically oriented teeth that penetrate and hold a section of the fabric of the hat to assist in drawing taut the working area that is to be embroidered or monogrammed. The cross member is slideably adjusted along the length of the frame and is adapted to be fixed securedly to the side members when the hat is being monogrammed or embroidered. Incorporated in the frame and mounted at the approximate mid-section of the front member is a curved rod member, which is attached to a lever assembly that permits the rod to be lowered and lifted from the working area. The rod, when lowered by the lever assembly and locked into position, is most effective in drawing the working area taut and flat to permit a distortion free and high quality embroidery or monogram.
