Disclosed are modularized garment manufacturing method and system for small quantity batch production of garments. Basic components constituting an ordered garment are generated by analyzing shape graphic data of the ordered garment. For each basic component, basic patterns are generated for each dimension of the ordered garment. The basic patterns are compared with reference garment patterns stored in a garment pattern database to determine a pattern category of each basic pattern. Based on the pattern category of the basic patterns and information on garment production lines currently in operation, subdivided work modules are determined for each basic pattern. A configuration of modular sewing process lines, which include module processing lines for manufacturing the working modules and component-joining process lines for completing production of the ordered garment by joining the basic pattern products produced in each module processing line, is designed based on operation information of a garment production line.

Provided is a machine-readable medium storing instructions that when executed by a processor effectuate operations including: receiving, with an application executed by a communication device, a first set of inputs including user data; generating, with the application, a three-dimensional model of the user based on the user data; receiving, with the application, a second set of inputs including a type of clothing garment; generating, with the application, a first set of clothing garments including clothing garments from a database of clothing garments that are the same type of clothing garment; generating, with the application, a second set of clothing garments from the first set of clothing garments based on the user data and one or more relationships between clothing attributes and human attributes; and presenting, with the application, the clothing garments from the second set of clothing garments virtually fitted on the three-dimensional model of the user.

A terminal has: a sewing information file preparation unit for preparing a sewing information file which includes a sewing information related to a particular sewing data selected from a plurality of sewing data stored in a predetermined folder of a storage unit; and a storage processing unit for storing the prepared sewing information file in another folder of the storage unit. A sewing machine includes: a reading folder determination unit for determining a folder to which the sewing information file to be sewn is read from the storage unit based on the current operation mode; and a sewing data acquisition unit for referring to the sewing information included in the sewing information file from the determined folder and acquiring the particular sewing data.

A sewing machine includes a sewing portion, a movement portion, a processor, and a memory. The memory is configured to store computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, instruct the processor to perform processes. The processes include pattern acquisition processing of acquiring data relating to an embroidery pattern, first position information acquisition processing of acquiring first position information indicating a position of the holder when the holder is in a first position, second position information acquisition processing of acquiring second position information indicating a position of the holder when the holder is in a second position different from the first position, generating processing of generating sewing data for sewing the embroidery pattern re-shaped on the basis of the first position information and the second position information, and sewing control processing of controlling the sewing portion and the movement portion in accordance with the generated sewing data.

A sewing machine includes a feed amount setting part and a feed amount adjustment part. In the feed amount setting part, a forward feed amount for one stitch of forward stitching is set. In the feed amount adjustment part, the forward feed amount which is set by the feed amount setting part is compared with the maximum backward feed amount for one stitch of reverse stitching which is determined by a feed mechanism. Then, in the feed amount adjustment part, when the forward feed amount is larger than the maximum backward feed amount, the total amount of backward feed amounts for plural stitches of backward stitching is adjusted so as to coincide with the total amount of the forward feed amounts for one stitch or more of forward stitching.

A sewing machine determines a pattern from multiple patterns, as a first pattern. The sewing machine generates a projection image including a first image representing a sewing image of the first pattern in a sewing expected size thereof. The sewing machine projects the generated projection image onto a projection area. The sewing machine sews the first pattern on a workpiece in the sewing expected size based on pattern data for the first pattern.

A sewing machine includes a sewing portion, a movement portion, a processor and a memory. The memory is configured to store computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, instruct the processor to perform processes. The processes include acquiring pattern data indicating positions of a plurality of needle drop points to sew a pattern, acquiring a position of a sewing start point of the pattern, performing first correction, performing second correction that uses the acquired position of the sewing start point as a base point, and corrects the pattern data, by changing, by an acquired change amount, the positions of the plurality of needle drop points represented by the pattern data corrected by the first correction, and controlling the sewing portion and the movement portion and sewing the pattern on the sewing object, in accordance with the pattern data corrected by the second correction.

An operation state ascertaining unit of a sewing machine ascertains an operation state of a sewing machine main body. A content information selection unit selects particular content information that corresponds to the operation state ascertained by the operation state ascertaining unit from among multiple content information stored in an operation-associated content information storage unit that stores multiple content information corresponding to the operation state. An instruction information appending unit appends additional information with respect to instruction content for the main body to the content information selected by the content information selection unit. A coding unit codes the selected content information to which the additional information has been appended by the instruction information appending unit. A display unit displays the content information coded by the coding unit. Subsequently, a reader unit of a terminal apparatus reads the coded content information, and a display unit displays the content thus read.

A sewing-machine operating program is installed in a terminal device of a user. A specifying information acquiring step causes a short-distance information acquiring unit to acquire specifying information recorded on a sewing-machine main unit. In the distance measuring step, an apart distance is calculated from a detection result of a movement detecting sensor with a position where the specifying information is acquired being as an initial position. In the distance comparing step, for a remote operation to the sewing-machine main unit, the apart distance and a prescribed distance are compared. In the function restricting step, when the apart distance is within the prescribed distance, an operation command is transmitted to the sewing-machine main unit via a wireless communication device, and when the apart distance exceeds the prescribed distance, the operation command is not transmitted to the sewing-machine main unit.
