Sewist community

I love being part of this community. Lots of inspiration and support, tutorials to help you with techniques and great place to share your makes and be encouraged.

Love this sew much!

I love this app. It feels like stepping back in time 15 years to when we could see everything our sewing friends posted without interruption from ads or surly content, but with a few upgrades like the ability to directly add links and to create tutorials right within the app!

Most excellent

This app is absolutely excellent for those who love sewing! It feels like a real community.

Such a great app for the sewing community!

I just love this app, it’s dedicated to the sewing and making community and it’s such a nice space to be in. I love seeing people’s projects, it currently feels really wholesome and user led since there are no ads or algorithm (please stay that way!). They have already made significant useful updates and constantly improving based on feedback. I love it, and if you’re into sewing and making things with fibres and fabrics then this app is for you!

Worth Every Penny

Fantastic app! The user interface is great! No algorithms, just organic community building. Work the $2 a month to get away from social media apps with their own agendas.

A safe and warm sewing community

I’m new to sewing, and I was looking for sewing apps. I signed up for the trial to try the app out and Im enjoying it so much! I like that there’s a small subscription fee to ensure the community is safe and authentic. Plus, it’s important to have majority female spaces, especially when posting pictures of ourselves in the garments we sew. Everyone is so nice and passionate about their craft. Scrolling through the explore page provides plenty of inspiration and the tutorials people make are wonderful especially for a beginner sewist. I hope the community continues to thrive!

No for me

There’s been a lot a controversy around the founder of this app. I am editing my message here: the first version said that I was not ok with supporting an homophobic organisation. The founder’s answer is that World Vision Aus is different from World Vision USA. I apologise for confusing the two. But I am not changing my note here, because the founder’s answer on Instagram was focused solely on how hurt she was. Not a word for the LGBTqia+ community. She also said that she is “politically neutral”. There is no such thing. If you let the wolves and the sheep in, you’re siding with the wolves. “Political neutrality” is an agenda too and a very violent one. Social media is already a bad place and I won’t put more of my money into a place that does not align with my values and why I decided to not keep my paid subscription, as it is my right. Framing it as “character assassinations” is disingenuous.

Response from developer

Hi Lismel, I am not a religious fundamentalist – and I have not donated to World Vision USA. I was unaware of their existence, unaware of their non inclusive practices, and unaware of their lawsuits. When I found out about World Vision USA a few days ago I was horrified because what they were doing was repulsive and absurd. I donate to World Vision Australia which is a separate organisation (and the only one i was aware before a few days ago) because they are the first responders to disasters in the Asia Pacific Region where i live. I started donating to World Vision Australia in 2015 when there was a massive earthquake in Nepal and they were the first on the ground providing assistance. World Vision Australia is well known for being committed to inclusivity, and the type of behaviours you are describing are illegal in Australia. I do not support discrimination and never have. Everyone is welcome on Sewcial. In addition Sewcial does not donate to any charities or organisations. The person who made a post about me on Instagram was operating under a misunderstanding about the organisation I donated to, based on a reddit post and unverified information, all of which is factually incorrect. Please do appropriate fact checking before posting character assassinations on the internet. Megan Nielsen

The app I didn’t know i needed

I’m new to sewing and was on instagram trying to find community that I could reach out to for advice. The thing is because of the algorithms no one would really see my posts. Sewcial isn’t like that. My posts show up in everyone’s feed who follows me and I’ve gotten tons of advice. I’ve only been on it a week and it’s already indispensable!

A breath of fresh air!

Loving this app. A community centered social media app for crafters that uses organic connection instead of an algorithm. It’s refreshing! A fun space to share your makes and be inspired!

Sew Much Fun …

…. To connect with Makers all over the world without all the ‘interruptions’. Really like that all the tutorials are stored in one spot for easy access.

Response from developer

I'm so glad you are enjoying being on Sewcial and the lack of algorithms and ads! Just like you the tutorials are one of my favourite features too! Thanks for the review :) Megan Nielsen

How refreshingly normal and slow and kind and uncomplicated this app is. I am on day 3 and just can’t get enough of it. It feels so much healthier. My posts feel more work based than trying to bat off homophobia and hatred. Thank you. Please don’t EVER become like Instagram et all. Keep it beautiful and simple and most importantly, kind and loving and supportive.

Hi Karll! This makes me so happy! I'm so glad that you are finding Sewcial to be welcoming and calm and kind. This was our hope for the app, and it makes me so happy to hear that it is making you feel safe and at home. Don't worry, we will stay true our ethos :) Thanks for joining our community, I'm so happy you're here! Megan Nielsn

I’m obsessed (in a good way)

I rarely leave app reviews, but we are a few days into this app being live and I am obsessed. It’s so much fun and everything so many sewists have been missing from Instagram for a long time now. No algorithm, no ads, chronological feeds, hashtags and lots of sewing content and chat without the noise that Instagram brings. Just what the sewing community needed!

Perfect

I love this app so far, layout is clear and it’s really easy to use and upload content.

Response from developer

Thank you! I'm so glad you are finding it easy to use and are enjoying being on Sewcial!

so happy this is here!

It’s so nice to have a social media dedicated just to sewing. I’ve been so sick of algorithms and ads, and this platform is like a ray of sunshine! I love seeing everyone’s projects and getting inspired and sharing my creations. I hope this app stays the same, and I hope this community grows!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for this review Shale! I'm so glad you are enjoying Sewcial! Your experience is exactly what we hoped it would be, and I'm excited to see the community grow as well! Don't worry, we won't depart from our purpose - this is social media made for the community, just the way the community wants it :) Thanks for being a part of Sewcial! Megan Nielsen

Wish it was free

What a wonderful concept: a social media app for the sewing community! While I understand that apps require maintenance and upkeep, adding another subscription to the budget isn’t something I can do at this time. I will, unfortunately, be deleting this app. Thank you for your effort and dedication.

Response from developer

I'm so glad that you have enjoyed using Sewcial but I'm so sorry to see you go! I wish we could offer it for free as well, but it's unfortunately not possible for us to run this platform without being able to cover the associated costs :( Wishing you all the best with your sewing journey, and we would love to have you back any time!
