No. Elias Howe invented a number of improvements to sewing machines, most notably the lock stitch mechanism underneath the fed material and the thread eye in the point of the needle itself. His improvements led to the ultimate success of sewing machines, but they may have never existed without failed inventions to improve upon.
Whilst there have been many variations of the sewing machine through the years, credit is generally given to Elias Howe. Elias Howe was employed in a machinist's shop, where he had the opportunity to experiment with inventing a sewing machine. He successfully demonstrated his first sewing machine in 1846, and patented his lockstitch sewing machine on 10 September 1846 in New Hartford, Connecticut. Howe faced a legal battle after Isaac Singer invented the up-and-down motion mechanism, and Allen Wilson developed a rotary hook shuttle, both filing for patents. After winning one suit, the three inventors pooled their patent rights in the Sewing Machine Combination. It was under this patent that the sewing machine was then successfully marketed.
The first sewing machine was patented by Elias Howe 9/10 1846. Isaac Singer patented the first model for home use 1854 (announced in 1851).
