Sewing machines have played a significant role in women's history. In the early 19th century, sewing machines were introduced to the United States and quickly became popular with women. Sewing machines allowed women to sew clothes for their families more quickly and easily, which helped them save time and money. In many instances, sewing machines also helped women climb out of poverty and imagine a different landscape for their lives.
