Abstract
A sewing machine provided with a needle capable of vertically reciprocating as well as laterally oscillating, a workholder so disposed as to be movable, in an X-Y coordinate plane which is in substantially right-angled relation with the needle, in the direction of the X axis and the Y axis, and memory means for storing data for controlling the oscillation movement amount of the needle and the shift amount of the workholder. The workholder is disposed in such a posture that each movement direction of X axis and Y axis thereof intersects the oscillation movement direction of the needle, whereby embroidery or stitch patterns of letters, symbols, and other patterns can be formed on the workpiece held on the workholder exclusively with slant stitches at a predetermined angle against a horizontal reference line of the letters, etc.
