Sewing and Quilting Bloggers to Watch--part 1

Here's part 1 of my list of Sewing and Quilting Bloggers (in no particular order) to watch this year!


Obsessively Stitching
Care loves sewing and posts LOTS of cute, fun, amazing tutorials. Watch for her dollar store crafts!



Park City Girl
Amy really made a name for herself last year with the spring and fall bloggers' quilt festivals. Quiltmakers signed up by the hundreds to show off their quilts. This year, she's promised more quilt festivals, and she's working on a book!

Tallgrass Prairie Studio
Jacquie was the mastermind behind Project Improv in 2009 and is always giving more to her readers. She offers many free tutorials and hosts events and contests to encourage quilters to try new things and finish old projects!


Candied Fabrics
Candy makes beautiful art quilts using her hand-dyed fabrics. I've really enjoyed watching her free motion quilting/sketching video tutorials. 


CraftSanity
Jennifer's podcast provides awesome interviews with amazing crafters and craft authors. She writes a blog, and does TV segments and youtube instructional videos too!

Geta's Quilting Studio
Geta is the only Romanian quilt blogger I know of. She has regular giveaways and sells patterns for her amazing shadow trapunto quilts.


Piece N Quilt
Natalia shows off her amazing longarm quilting skills and shares one tutorial after another for cute quilts and more. She also owns an online fabric shop that has fabulous sales!

Moda Bake Shop provides lots of inspiring patterns for sewing with Moda precut fabrics. Bloggers everywhere are wondering how they can submit their projects to be shown on modabakeshop.com.

Amy Lou Who
I love Amy's Sew & Tell Friday feature, where she encourages craft bloggers to link up to their finished projects. Amy shows off a variety of fun projects and shares tutorials on her blog as well.

My Itty Bitty Quilts
Kelli makes cute quilts and great tutorials. I was the lucky recipient of one of Kelli's doll swap quilts in 2009.


Mochi Studios
Rita makes the cutest Ninja beans and other softie creations and shares her indie craft fair adventures.
