The Sewing Circle

The Sewing Circle refers to a social gathering, traditionally among women, where participants come together to engage in sewing or other crafts. Beyond the crafting aspect, it serves as a space for social interaction, sharing stories, and support within the community. Historically, sewing circles have been significant in fostering friendships, discussing personal matters, and promoting solidarity, especially in times of social or political change. In some contexts, they have also acted as safe havens for marginalized groups, allowing members to connect and organize around shared interests or challenges.
