Abstract
Sewing machine includes a needle bar that is vertically moved to perform a sewing operation, a fabric holder supported on the needle bar in such a manner that the fabric holder is vertically movable relative to the needle bar, and an urging member for normally urging downward the fabric holder on the needle bar. The sewing machine further includes a position restricting member for mechanically restricting a position of the fabric holder to prevent unwanted upward movement of the fabric holder having reached a lower dead point along with the vertical movement of the needle bar.
