Sewing blogs were a big part of how I got back into sewing after about 15 years of not touching a machine. In the 2010s, the sewing blog community or SBC was a force, with tons of shared knowledge and creativity as well as problems like cliques, infighting, and IP theft. There were active forums at places like Pattern Review (still active) and even snark sites like Get Off My Internets (not linking there) and Reddit. I’ve always been a fan of RSS aggregators, so it was easy to keep up with my favorites. But then people slowly seemed to move to social media to showcase their sewing. By year 2 of the pandemic, many people had stopped posting on their blogs altogether. Some once-popular sites have now been abandoned to domain resellers, the knowledge they shared no longer accessible. Happily, though, some bloggers have never stopped posting, and a few others have recently begun posting again.
So who’s left blogging on their own site in 2026? Let’s take a peek at my Feedly (many feeds imported from Bloglines).
