Clothing is always expensive but in the past it was even pricier. Clothing had to be handmade & many people only had 1-3 sets of clothes and you couldn’t just buy new clothes at any time. So, how did soldiers on the march maintain their uniforms? Basic sewing, patching, darning, and more! Learn how sewing was an integral part of daily life for both soldiers and families while trying it yourself with these hands-on activities!
