In Stitches
There are huge machines in factories that sew most of our clothes and other items. But many people still enjoy sewing by hand or with their own sewing machines. One reason people like to sew their own clothes is because, that way, they can choose exactly what size, colour, and material they want. Some people like to sew special things for their homes, such as curtains or pillowcases. People also sew gifts for their friends or families.
Embroidery is a craft that is related to sewing. It is used mainly for decoration. A person who embroiders uses a special needle and coloured thread called embroidery thread to make different kinds of stitches on cloth. The stitches can form pictures or designs.
You may have a shirt or sweater with words or pictures on it that have been embroidered by a machine. But many craft-workers enjoy embroidering by hand because it is creative and it relaxes them.
