National Sewing Month takes place every year in September. Ronald Reagan proclaimed in 1982, marking the start of the day. There has always existed a skill that improves the aesthetics of our homes, shields us from every weather, and ensures we have a good night’s sleep even in the coldest weather. Sewing is that skill. National Sewing Month is celebrated to honor this artistic practice that fashions our bodies and adorns our homes all year. So, grab your needles and start sewing.
