I always figured sewing machines existed in Narnia from time immemorial, since Helen remembered how a simple one was put together and got the dwarfs to help her build an example. But anything she and Frank didn't understand in a similarly in-depth fashion had to be invented piecemeal over time, which makes Narnian technology a deeply weird hodge-podge.
