Abstract
Stitching data including reference point data specifying a reference point in an embroidery pattern is used when embroidering the pattern included in one or more patterns which are formed on a workpiece. A mark indicating the reference point is stitched on the workpiece or the location of the reference point is stored in a storage memory. The mark indicating the reference point or the storage of the location of the reference point enables the efficient, accurate determination of the positions of the one or more patterns on the workpiece being embroidered.
