The tactile sewing system comprises a plurality of fabric pieces with tactile guides that enable the blind, visually and otherwise impaired to independently hand sew fabric using their sense of touch. The tactile sewing system generally comprises a plurality of fabric pieces, each having a tactile border strip defining a tactile edge of the fabric piece whereby the tactile edge can be used by a user to tactilely guide the sewing of a seam at the edge without the need to visually guide the sewing of the seam. In some embodiments, the tactile sewing system is configured in a kit comprising components such as a needle and thread.
