A sewing machine includes a sewing portion sewing an embroidery pattern on a cloth, a first storage portion storing the stitch data and pattern data, a display portion, a processor, and a memory storing computer-readable instructions. The computer-readable instructions, executed by the processor, includes first acquiring the stitch data and the pattern data, and first displaying, based on the pattern data, the pattern image on the display portion. The computer-readable instructions also includes, first generating a plurality of partial images representing a number of stitches corresponding to a first predetermined number, based on the stitch data, after the first displaying of the pattern image on the display portion, and second displaying, each time each of the plurality of partial images is generated by the first generating, the generated partial image on a portion of the pattern image displayed by the first displaying that corresponds to the generated partial image.

A memory of a sewing machine stores a plurality of notification conditions for notifying an information processing device of an extent of progress of sewing of the embroidery pattern. The notification conditions include a first notification condition for notifying that the extent of progress is a first extent and a second notification condition for notifying that the extent of progress is a second extent. The sewing machine transmits, to the information processing device, first extent information indicating the first extent, when the sewing machine determines that the first notification condition is satisfied. The sewing machine transmits, to the information processing device, the second extent information indicating the second extent, when the sewing machine determines that the second notification condition is satisfied.

The sewing machine includes a projector and a controller. The controller determines a sewing area inside an embroidery hoop such that the sewing area is greater than a projection area where the projector projects a projection image. The controller determines an embroidery pattern and a position of the embroidery pattern located relative to the sewing area. The controller determines, in the sewing area, a target area corresponding to the projection area. The controller generates projection image data representing a part or a whole, which falls in the target area, of the embroidery patter relative to the sewing area, and controls the projector to project a projection image based on the projection image data after moving the embroidery hoop.

Embodiments herein describe creating parent composite actions that can include multiple child objects. The child object can be needle point paths or child composite actions (which also include needle point paths). For example, a parent composite action can include a mix of child composite actions and needle point paths, only child composite actions, or only needle point paths. The needle point paths in the parent composite action can be translated into a single needle point path which can then be converted into a machine embroidery file.

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.
