A cloth presser device moves towards and away from the cloth support table and rotates relative to the sewing needle. A first driver is operatively connected to the cloth presser device and moves the cloth presser device towards and away from the cloth support table. A second driver is operatively connected to the cloth presser device and rotates the cloth presser device relative to the sewing needle. A controller has a first signal supplied to the first driver and actuates the first driver, and a second signal supplied to the second driver and actuates the second driver.
