Hi, I love Pinterest. I have been finding excellent places for tutorials through this! And, I get Sew News Magazine in the mail! Love it also!! thank you!
Using google to search for the best deals on sewing techniques and accessories.
I love sew news and bernina sites as well as creative embroidery and several other free sites to get quilt patterns and ideas. My biggest struggle is way too many ideas and far too little time. I keep saying….when I retire…and my retired friends just laugh at me. I think they know something don’t!
Surprisingly, I find Pinterest to be my greatest online resource. Not only do I have a spot to keep all the links to great pages in one spot, I can also can keep inspirations and wander to find more if I want.
My first choice is all free sewing.com I have probably made at least 50 of their different projects.. Piinterest is great, as well. And, of course Sew News, my source for great tutorials as well as other information!
I have several go-to sites I use for sewing. Just to name a few, Pinterest, YouTube, Sewing With Nancy, Sew News, Quilting Arts, Donna Dewberry.
There are so many that I go to for info that it’s hard to just pin point just one. I know that it all depends on just what I’m getting ready to sew. I really do like the information and the ideas that I get here on Sew News for sure!
I really like BurdaStyle.com Free patterns and project ideas too.
There are several websites that I use for inspiration. The information that I recieve on SewNews is always helpful. I also use Oregonpatchworks for embroidery inspiration. I have 4 sewing machines and often have at least two going at one time so anything I can find on the web is valuable to me. I love the SewNews site for so many good how-tos to help speed up the sewing and creating process. Thanks for all you do.
I like all the sites I find.
Sewing with Nancy, Quilt in a day. Most any site I can find that has todo with quilting.
It’s hard to choose favorites. I love the Sew New site and the Threads site. I also love shopping for fabric at too many sites. I love Sewing Gifts on Time, a yahoo group. I get so many ideas from the people on that list.
I like Tipnut.com, has a variety of craft resources, not just sewing and quilting. I mainly use it for sewing and get free patterns and tips.
Often times if I’m looking for something specific, I just do a search and find inspiration that way. If I’m just browsing, Pinterest and then the multitude of sewing sites I frequent are my favorites! Just depends on how much time I have at night!
Nancysnotions.com, bought a few presser feet yesterday. She has unique items!
Sewing with Nancy, Fons and Porter, and many others.
I subscribed to SewNews on my IPad and I’m loving it.

My fav online resources are I think Craftsy.com, Sew4Home.com, Pinterest. Personal blogs…. there are so many.
I like Sew News on line. I was a subscriber for many years and can’t bear to part with them. Now I like the digital editions. Tip Nut and several quilting sites that I get newsletters for also provide (too) much inspiration.

Totally addicted to Pinterest … plenty of sewing tutorials, ideas and inspiration !
