Sewing was once an everyday activity enjoyed by women and even men in the 1950's. In 2014, crafting and sewing has come back into in vogue again. No longer a skill enjoyed by just older women, sewing has become a hip mainstream hobby, as evidenced by recent reports. The 2012 Sewing Industry Overview by HART Business Research found that there were over 60 million sewers in the United States alone, while Etsy, the online superstore for handcrafted goods, boasts millions of crafters selling their wares. For beginning sewers who want to try needlecraft, Craftster's Sewing Kit's is proud to introduce a premium sewing kit for adults and beginners. The sewing kit contains all the elements needed to mend a shirt, sew a button, or do small sewing repairs at home or on the road.

Craft is booming online. Etsy, the largest marketplace for crafters, now has over 30 million members. Inside its "housewares" section, there are over 1 million handcrafted items for purchase. In 2012, Sewing-machine sales topped three million according to SVP Worldwide, the maker of Singer sewing machines, up from 1.5 million a year more than a decade ago. And in the blog world, one of the most popular interior design sites, Design*Sponge, (485,000-plus Twitter followers) has a big emphasis on achievable, crafty, do-it-yourself projects and features one a week, from embroidered napkins to found and vintage materials turned into quilts, cushions and clothing.
