Abstract
An embroidery frame includes a holding member configured to hold a sewing workpiece, an attaching member connected to the holding member and is detachably supported in a specified mounting position in relation to a frame support member provided in a sewing machine, and a positioning member mounted on the attaching member and including second engaging portions and displaceable portions. When, in the specified mounting position, the second engaging portion is engaged with first engaging portion, horizontal movement of the attaching member is restricted. When the displaceable portion is positioned in a first position, the horizontal movement of the attaching member is restricted by the engaging of the second engaging portion with the first engaging portion provided on the frame support member, and when the displaceable portion is positioned in a second position, the restricting of the horizontal movement of the attaching member is undone.
