Embodiment Construction

[0025]An embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, a sewing machine 10 of the embodiment is a multi-needle sewing machine having six needle bars 21 and includes two legs 11, a pillar 12, an arm 13, a cylinder bed 14, a carriage 15 and a needle bar case 20. In the following description, the side where a user is located relative to the sewing machine 10 will be referred to as “front” of the sewing machine 10. The side located opposite the front will be referred to as “rear.” The direction in which the legs 11 are opposed to each other is a right-left direction of the sewing machine 10. The direction perpendicular to the right-left direction is a front-back direction of the sewing machine 10. The direction perpendicular to the right-left direction and the front-back direction is an up-down direction. The right-left direction correspond to an X direction and the front-back direction corresponds to a Y direction.
