SOLUTION: A cloth conveying device 300 includes a holding mechanism 310 for holding the workpiece C, and a moving mechanism 330 for conveying the workpiece via the holding mechanism. The cloth conveying device conveys the workpiece to a button holing sewing machine 200 to sew a plurality of button holes in the conveying direction. The holding mechanism includes: a mounting plate 311 for mounting the workpiece; a support arm 320 extended to the sewing machine side and turned up from a sewing-machine side edge of the mounting plate; and a plurality of holding members 314 supported by the support arm for pressing and holding the workpiece on the mounting plate from above. The turned-up part 323 of the support arm is formed lower than a cloth releasing position of a presser foot 201 of the button holing sewing machine. The holding mechanism can move to a first stop position not to overlap with the button holing sewing machine in the conveying direction. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
