In an automatic sewing machine of the type comprising a memory device storing a predetermined sewing pattern, a movable head including a cloth clamping member for clamping a piece of cloth to be sewed to a movable head, a pulse motor controlled by an electric signal read out from the memory device for moving the movable head at a predetermined speed thereby sewing the piece of cloth according to the sewing pattern, a working tool is mounted on the sewing machine, and a blank of a cloth clamping member is mounted on the movable head at a position to be worked by the working tool. At this time the pulse motor is driven at a speed lower than the predetermined speed, thereby working the blank to have a profile corresponding to the sewing pattern.
