Home Sewing - Recreational Sewing
ASG (American Sewing Guild) : By the mid
1970s, sewing education had already been dropped from many school curriculums.
American women were entering the workforce in large numbers, no longer having
the time to sew or to teach their daughters the sewing arts. The American
Home Sewing Association (a trade organization of fabric, pattern, notions
and sewing machine manufacturers and sewing related retail stores now known
as the Home Sewing Association) wanted to come up with a way to keep the
interest in and tradition of home sewing alive and well as a valued part
of American culture. The idea of the American Sewing Guild was born.

Patterns for Home Sewing
Home Sewing Association : Since
the 1920s, the Home Sewing Association (HSA) has represented the many facets
of the home sewing industry. The Association brings together fabric, pattern,
notions, fiber, craft, home decorating, publishing and sewing machine companies
with manufacturers, retailers, educators, wholesalers and buying offices.
In 1996, the Association merged with the International Sewing Machine Association
(ISMA), an organization comprised of independent sewing machine dealers
and distributors, creating the only organization representing the entire
home sewing industry. Members meet at trade shows to exchange ideas, share
information and showcase new products.
