Abstract

A sewing machine has a pattern selection device and a seam memory for supplying stitch data for a needle positioning mechanism and a feeder mechanism. The pattern selection means includes a control switch adapted to be set in accordance with the type of cloth to be sewn. On basis of information input via the control switch and preprogramming of the memory, that seam data is chosen which is most suitable to the selected type of cloth and a selected sewing operation.
