WHAT DOES COSTURA MEAN IN SPANISH?

Sewing

Sewing is the method by which two or more fabrics are joined by piercing and interlacing a thread through them, usually with the aid of a needle. It can also be used to join skins, canvas or other flexible materials. Its use is almost universal among human populations and goes back to paleolithic times. Sewing is an art used primarily to produce clothing and household goods, such as curtains, bedding, upholstery, and table linen. Most seams in the industrial world are made with sewing machines. For example, more than five different sewing machines are required to make a cowboy trouser. Some people sew clothes for themselves and their family. More often home seams are for repairs such as mending a torn seam or replacing a missing button. A person who sews to live is known as a seamstress, dressmaker or tailor. "Simple" sewing is done for functional reasons: making or mending clothes. The "ornamental" seam is mainly decorative, and includes techniques such as ruched, honeycomb, embroidery and applications.
