Sewing

A hobby for all generations


Sewing is the craft of fastening or attaching objects using stitches made with a sewing needle and thread. Sewing is one of the oldest of the textile arts, arising in the Paleolithic era. as done by hand. The invention of the sewing machine in the 19th century and the rise of computerization in the 20th century led to mass production and export of sewn objects, but hand sewing is still practiced around the world. Younger generations are learning to sew, in part due to the pollution and waste caused by the fashion industry. Today's millennials are sewing their way to a more sustainable "me-made" wardrobe—a true expression of the slow fashion movement that starts in the home.
