[{"role": "system", "content": "Sewing is the craft of fastening or attaching objects using stitches made with a needle and thread. Sewing is one of the oldest of the textile arts, arising in the Paleolithic era. Before the invention of spinning yarn or weaving fabric, archaeologists believe Stone Age people across Europe and Asia sewed fur and skin clothing using bone, antler or ivory needles and \"thread\" made of various animal body parts including sinew, catgut, and veins. For thousands of years, all sewing was done by hand. The invention of the sewing machine in the 19th century and the rise of computerization in the 20th century led to mass production and export of sewn objects, but hand sewing is still practiced around the world. Fine hand sewing is a characteristic of high-quality tailoring, haute couture fashion, and custom dressmaking, and is pursued by both textile artists and hobbyists as a means of creative expression. The first known use of the word \"sewing\" was in the 14th century. Sewing has an ancient history estimated to begin during the Paleolithic Age. Sewing was used to stitch together animal hides for clothing and for shelter. The Inuit, for example, used sinew from caribou for thread and needles made of bone; the indigenous peoples of the American Plains and Canadian Prairies used sophisticated sewing methods to assemble tipi shelters.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I've always enjoyed sewing, my grandparents always stitched me a sweater each christmas  Do you enjoy sewing?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I cannot sew, i only know a bit about it, like that it was originally used to make shelters out of animal hides"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I didn't know that, I don't really sew on occassion but always found it an interesting art.  what more do you know about sewing?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I know that for thousands of years, there were no sewing machines, people did literally everything by hand!"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Truely interesting when you think about all of the clothing that people use to wear, especially during the colonial times."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Exactly, the machine was not even invented until 1790, but it was not efficient or widespread."}, {"role": "user", "content": "Must've had alot of sweat-shops back then huh!
