1. A sewing machine coordinate data generator to generate coordinate data of absolute positions configured by X coordinate values and Y coordinate values of needle positions for a pattern to be sewn comprising;
a coordinate data storage section for storing the coordinate data of the needle positions;
a distance setting section to allows a user to set a predetermined distance; and
a post-addition coordinate data generation section to add respective independent values to the X coordinate values or the Y coordinate values of the coordinate data for each item of the coordinate data stored in the coordinate data storage, so as to generate a new coordinate data, wherein:
the post-addition coordinate data generation section, when a distance greater than 0 between the coordinate data of one needle position and the coordinate data of another needle position stored in the coordinate data storage section is less than the predetermined distance, makes the respective independent values to be added to the X coordinate value or Y coordinate value of the coordinate data of the one needle position the same values for the respective independent values to be added to the X coordinate value or Y coordinate value of the coordinate data of the another needle position.
