Invention of the Day - Sewing Machines


Sewing Machine


A sewing machine is a machine used to stitch fabric and other materials together with thread. It was first invented in 1790 by an Englishman Thomas Saint. The machine used many different stitches. There are many different kinds of sewing machines. There are big industrial sewing machines used to sew big items like shoes, blankets and curtains. There are smaller machines for sewing at home. In the old days the sewing machines were foot machines. Today most sewing machines are electric.
