It’s new: SewSet online sewing community

Jessica from Me Sew Crazy announces the launch of her newest sewing site, SewSet. It’s an online directory of sewing patterns and tutorials by independent designers.

If you’re an independent pattern designer, SewSet can help bring your patterns to a wider audience. And if you’re a sewist, SewSet offers a convenient way to find new patterns for your projects, kind of a cross between Pinterest and a linky party – but with a focus entirely on sewing patterns.

The homepage shows top picks for the day, but you can also browse by category (children, women, men, home decor, by designer) and then subcategories. Or, for more specific returns, you can use the search feature. When you find something you like, you can save it to a “favorites” folder for future reference.
