Abstract

This study attempts to explore the female life history embedded in the sewing machines. This study examines the experience of women in Taiwan of different periods to use sewing machines through the historical studies and qualitative research, which can be used as historical supplement of women users and relevant products that have long been neglected in design, but also reflect numerous mysteries in modern design through their experience.
