Link parties are a great way to get your blog out there. They're also a good way to find interesting blogs and a way to meet like minded bloggers. If, like me, sewing is your main focus, you may find the following links helpful. Sewing is the main focus for all of the link parties featured in today's post.
Earlier this year, I wrote a post showing 20 sewing related link parties. A couple of those parties have stopped or are in another format. I've also found a few more sewing related link parties, so today's post is an update.
 | Threading YOUR Way With Threading My Way is hosted by ME. All link parties are ongoing and themed, so you can add projects to any party at any time. So far there are 37 different linkies, each one a resource of sewing ideas, tutorials, pattern reviews and pictures, made by YOU. Almost all are sewing related. |
 | Sew & Tell Saturday, has returned. Justine, from Sew Country Chick hosts this weekly link party. You can add handmade clothing, accessories, bags, jewellery, and refashions, whether made for you or your little ones. |
 | Inspire Us Thursdays, is a new, weekly link party, hosted by Ren, from The Inspired Wren. Anything made with fabric, thread, floss, or yarn is welcome—sewing of all kinds (sew), cross-stitch & embroidery (needle), knitting (stitch), crochet (hook). |
 | Fabric Frenzy Friday is a new link party, hosted by Fort Worth Fabric Studio. At this weekly link party, anything goes--as long as it has to do with fabric - finished quilts, a work in progress, new fabric, a project made with fabric, or show off some of your stash. |
 | Slow Stitching Sunday celebrates the art of hand stitching - hand piecing, appliqué, rug making, binding, english paper piecing, embroidery and more. All types of hand work projects are welcome at this weekly link party hosted by Kathy's Quilts. |
 | Kristy, from Quiet Play, hosts a weekly Paper Piecing Party. To join in link up something paper pieced you’ve been working on. It might be a finished project, a block, part of a block, a new pattern you’re planning to try… as long as it’s related to foundation paper piecing. |
 | Heather from Feather's Flights, has changed the format of You Flew. I Sew: I Flew, is now on Pinterest. Anyone can be added as a contributor and add their sewing projects. |
 | Christine, from ChrisW Designs, hosts a weekly link party, Bag Brag Tuesday. You can link up up anything bag related... bag making tips, a bag pattern you've sewn, even bags you have on offer on Etsy. |
| Sew Book Inspired, a relatively new link party, is specifically for projects that have been sewn using a sewing book. This ongoing link party is run by Diya, from The Hobby Harbor. |
 | Sew Cute Tuesday is a weekly link party for sewing, crochet, knitting and anything with fabric and thread. Alyce, from Blossom Heart Quilts, hosts this link party, with features shown each week at the link party. |
 | Whilst you can share any projects (sewing and non-sewing) on Linky Tuesday at Freemotion by the River, most people only add sewing projects to this weekly link party. Connie is an avid quilter and so, many projects added are also quilting related. One project is featured each week at the party. |
| New to Me in 2014, is a monthly link party, hosted by Fiona, from Celtic Thistle Stitches. Link ups open on the 25th of each month and stay open till the end of the month. Projects that involve trying out a new technique or activity can be added. Although non-sewing projects can be added, most items added are sewing or craft related. |
 | Show Off Saturday hosted by Caroline, from Sew Can She, is a weekly link party for sewn projects. The most clicked project from each party is highlighted the next Friday. |
| Needle and Thread Thursday is a weekly link party for quilting and sewing. Kelly, from My Quilt Infatuation has a passion for quilting, but anything made with needle and thread can be linked up. Features are showcased each week at the link party. |
 | Anything Goes Mondays, is a weekly link party hosted by Marelize, from Stitch by Stitch. You can link up any posts which feature quilting, sewing, knitting or crochet. Features are chosen randomly and are shown each week with the link party. |
 | Richard and Tanya, from Richard and Tanya Quilts, host Link A Finish Fridays. You can link up any sewing finishes to this weekly link party, although they like quilts the best. Each month, someone chosen at random wins a $15 gift card to the Fat Quarter Shop. |
 | Lynn, from Lily's Quilts, hosts 2 monthly link parties: Fresh Sewing Day and Small Blog Meet. Both parties are for sewing projects, but the Small Blog Meet is specifically for bloggers with fewer than 50 followers. |
 | At WIP Wednesday you can link up any post from the past week that features at least one unfinished work-in-progress (WIP). This weekly link party is hosted by Lee, from Freshly Pieced. |
 | Thank Goodness It's Finished Friday is hosted on different blogs. This weekly party is the brainchild of Laura, from Quokka Quilts and M-R, from Quilt Matters. There is a schedule so you can see future hosts and you can sign up to host, too. This is predominantly a quilting link party, but there is sewing as well. |
 | At Fabric Tuesday, you can add any projects that have to do with fabric. This weekly link party is hosted by sisters Heather and Megan, from Quilt Story. |
If you know of any other sewing related linkies, I'd love you to leave me a link in the comments.
