Summary: Sewing is a very popular craft that is almost universally used. Its origin dates as far back as the Paleolithic age (30,000 BC), and is usually, today, used to make clothing or home furnishings. There are several different methods and stitches involved in sewing that all serve a unique purpose depending on what is being made.
