When a user specifies, as an embroidery sewing condition, an embroidery pattern that can be sewn with thread spools set for needle bars, embroidery data on an embroidery pattern and needle bar thread information on a thread set for a needle bar are read and stored in a RAM. Embroidery thread information included in embroidery data is read out in a sequential order, and embroidery thread information and specified thread information are compared with each other. An embroidery pattern having embroidery data of which all of the embroidery thread information is coincident with the specified thread information is extracted as an embroidery pattern that satisfies the embroidery sewing condition. The extracted embroidery pattern is then displayed on a liquid crystal display.
