Best of Crafty Sites You Should Visit
I have been blogging for about 4 months and started with adding my completed craft projects mostly on Silk Ribbon Embroidery. Starting something from scratch is really painful if you do not know anything about blogging. Thanks to my brother, I did not have such difficulties. Coming mostly from search engines, I reached an acceptable visitor count in my 4th month, about at 800-900 unique visitors a day. I was targeting only visitors from Turkey as my blog was maintained in turkish. It has been over 2 weeks I manage my site bilingual; in english as addition. Then I started seeking english bloggers and I have explored great talented bloggers around world and honestly this decreased my productivity :) In each craft project pages, and in each sites in their blogroll I explore another sites, another great projests and I can’t help but just viewing their creations. I was amazed with the touch of women hands on knittings, crochettings, quiltings and many so on. And my little world, squuezed into Silk Ribbon Embroidery projects :) SRE is my puppy love and can not spare time to learn other things much.
Not in any particular order, following list is my picks from my about 2 weeks web findings of Craft Portals that you can find frequently updates contents of craft related projects, patterns, tutorials.
Craft Gossip – Craft Blog Network
Craft Gossip | Craft Blog Network
The very recent Crafty site I explored and author was so kind to review my SRE tutorials and create post for them. This site will bring you a lot craft stuff, ideas, tutorials, projects around web.

I liked very much the idea behind this site. And what the great is site is not managed by multiple author, that is what I understand from About page. Rachel, the editor of site, does some great work If she is the only person behind such hard work. You should check this site everyday because her picks around web are outstanding! Hopefully she picks my works one day too :) What I’m concerned about her site is that, search engines does not help her much because content is not post based. I hope she can get some help from SEO experts.
