Abstract
An embroidering apparatus for use with a sewing machine has a body supported on a bed and movable back and forth and laterally along guide rails extending perpendicularly to each other. A table and a support frame to which an embroidery frame is attachable are mounted on the body for movement therewith. A fixed tracing needle is oriented to the table on which an original pattern is to be placed. In operation, the table can be manipulated to permit the tracing needle to follow the original pattern on the table while the latter is being moved around.

An embroidering apparatus for use with a sewing machine having a needle provided at a predetermined position, comprising:
- a table movably supported in a plane including at least two intersecting directions on which an original pattern is to be placed,
- an embroidery frame associated with said needle of said sewing machine, means connecting said frame to said table for movement therewith in the direction corresponding to the movement of said table responsive thereto, and
- a tracing needle having the tip end thereof positioned at a fixed position and said tip end oriented to said original pattern on said table.
An embroidering apparatus for use with a sewing machine, comprising a pair of guide rails extending perpendicularly to each other, an embroidery frame movable back and forth and laterally along said guide rails, a table operatively connected to said embroidery frame and manually actuatable for timed movement with the embroidery frame, a tracing needle oriented to said table on which an original pattern is to be placed, and means operatively connecting said tracing needle to said embroidery frame in fixed relationship therewith whereby movement of said tracing needle along said pattern correspondingly shifts said embroidery frame with respect to the needle of the sewing machine.
