About the Sew Daily Community: Sewing Together

What is Sew Daily?

Sew Daily is your one-stop for all things sewing. The Sew Daily community is unique in that offers not only traditional expert instruction, and sewing techniques, but also fresh and modern patterns, up-and-coming sewing stars, projects, and trends. No matter what your skill level, the Sew Daily Community has what you need. If you’re looking for a place to learn how to sew, challenge yourself with a new technique or try something completely different—we’ll fit you to a T.

Living under Sew Daily is now Sew NewsCapsule Studio, the Sew & Tell podcast, and Creative Machine Embroidery. With each of our exciting titles, we bring you into the world of sewing, textiles, machine embroidery, home décor trends, and fashion all under one roof. And, all of it is delivered the way you want it: online, digital, video, and print.

We live and breathe sewing in all its wonderful forms and there is nothing we’d rather do than spread the word about how awesome sewing is and help you become better at it.
