A sewing machine includes: a needle vertical movement mechanism which moves a sewing needle; a moving mechanism which holds a workpiece by a holding frame; an inner presser-foot device which moves an inner presser foot on an upper side of the workpiece held by the holding frame; a control device which controls the moving mechanism based on sewing data in which stitch positions are defined in order in a series of sewing; and a height detector which detects a height of the inner presser foot. The control device lowers the inner presser foot to an upper surface of the workpiece held by the holding frame, detects the height of the inner presser foot by the height detector, and determines suitability of a thickness of the workpiece, at one or plural stitch positions defined in the sewing data before starting the sewing in accordance with the sewing data.
