Abstract
In a sewing device for feeding a sewn product through a given gap defined between the feeding surface of a sewing machine table and forward feeding members provided above the feeding surface, a sewn product supporting member for carrying the sewn product thereon is provided under the feeding members on the feeding side of the sewn product and a vertically driving unit for vertically moving the sewn product supporting member between the height of the feeding surface and that below the same is attached thereto. When the sewn product supporting member is lifted, the front end portion of the sewn product is brought into close contact with the feeding members uniformly and certainly. The feeding members subsequently feed the sewn product toward the feeding surface of the sewing machine table with certainty without rolling in or pulling the front end portion of the sewn product. As a result, it is possible to efficiently fabricate a sewn product of even and high quality.
