Dumping old sewing blog bookmarks and need new ones

[Familia]

Please share your favorite sewing websites or blogs.

I was looking through my old bookmarks, and I was so disappointed in the results.  Many have gone kaput - either going out of business or blogs no longer running.

I love photo tutorials of simple projects for sewing and how-to explanations like adding a pocket to a skirt or using my serger.

Can you share your favorite online sewing sources so I can update my bookmarks?

Thank you!

I like Peekaboo Pattern Shop but she does do a lot for children and it may not be exactly what you are looking for. All of her patterns though are great whatever age they are for. I have most of her woman's patterns.

I like the Sew Mama Sew site, including the blog. They have a lot of tutorials with photos, and there's a variety of projects and free patterns. Projects range from beginner to advanced. I had a few other blogs bookmarked but like with yours many are no longer active. A few went too far with sponsors and began to look like nothing but advertising.

 

Anyway, here's the link. I haven't figured out yet how to put links in text on my tablet.

Have you ever looked at Craftsy.com?

 

I know I use to have some good sewing blogs saved-I'll poke around and see if I can find them.

 

The Great British Sewing Bee is beyond fabulous and I think they are up to season 6 now.

This blog is fabulous, look at the archives for cute dress patterns and boy clothes. She used to host a month long sewing series aimed at boys.

Here is a commercial pattern site: http://oliverands.com/ . There is a Flickr group and Pinterest page where you can see cute variations of patterns.

This is my favorite.... Curvy Sewing Collective

 

http://curvysewingcollective.com/

 

Anyone, no matter their size, who wants to lean how to fit patterns to their own unique bodies could learn something from this website.

 

And also .... Collette Patterns

 

https://blog.colettehq.com/

 

They have tons of tutorials, including even more articles from Seamworks magazines.

 

Happy sewing!
