Happy Monday! Hope you had a great weekend! I just wanted to share a few things that have helped in my sewing blogging life, and if you love sewing these will be helpful!
The sewing community is super helpful and fun, so they can be a great resource on social media. And if you’re just looking for new sewing friends, I’ve compiled a list of a few great hashtags to follow and use on your own sewing instagrams 🙂
Instagram: Sewing Hashtags
- #sewcialists
- #sewcialist
- #memade
- #memadeeveryday
- #fabricaddict
- #fabriclove
Other fun instagram hashtags to add to your photos:
- #handmade
- #creativityfound
- #pursuepretty
- #ABMcrafty
- #calledtobecreative
- #quiltsofinstagram
- #handmadelove
Don’t forget to follow your favorite pattern and fabric designers! Browse the hashtags for your patterns to get inspiration for your next project. For example, check out the #SewingMarigold hashtag to see everyone’s versions of the Marigold Romper I made a few days ago!
Pinterest Sewing Community Boards
If you’re also a sewing blogger and want to promote some of your posts, try some of these group boards! I just became a member of a few of them, and I’m really excited to see how they work out!
I don’t know why it took me so long to find these! If you want to be a contributor on a few boards, check some of the big pinners you follow and see what community boards they’re on.
If the community board doesn’t have info on becoming a contributor, just message the creator of the board through pinterest and ask!
And of course, follow me on Pinterest for inspiration 🙂
