ABSTRACT:
An angle finder tool for use with embroidery machines, wherein the tool enables accurate angle measurements to be determined so that the embroidery machine may properly orient the design onto the fabric during the embroidery process. The angle finder tool includes a lower component comprising an angle degree chart and an upper component connected to the lower component, wherein the upper component comprises a crosshair. The upper component rotates independently of the lower component. The angle finder tool is placed within and parallel to an embroidery hoop and centered on a target orientation indicator on the fabric. The crosshair on the upper component is rotated to align with an arrow on the target indicator. The angle indicated by aligning the crosshair and target indicator arrow is supplied to an embroidery machine, which uses the angle to orient a design template in relation to the fabric.
