In one preferred mode, the operator selects by the touch panela pattern from the displayed patterns on the displayand starts the embroidery by operation of the start/stop switch. The CPUis checking the detection signal from the sensorand when the signal is on, the CPUkeeps the displayin operation. When the operator goes out from the sensor detectable area, the signal of the sensordisappears and the CPUgenerates the LED displayindicating the progress of the sewing. Since the operator can see the LED displayfrom the outside of the display visible area, the operator recognizes the conditions of the machine A.

Sewing machine

A sewing machine includes a display which displays a pattern and a marking. A marking-data disposing position specifier specifies the disposing position of another pattern relative to the pattern. A marked pattern replicator displays, on the display, plural marked patterns that are the patterns on which the corresponding markings are disposed. The positions where the plural marked patterns are displayed are set based on the markings of the plural marked patterns. After the display positions of the plural marked patterns are set, the marking of the marked pattern is deleted. Accordingly, pattern data of a new pattern is created.
