Helga @salixsews celebrated with over 30,000 @sewover50 followers by sharing her family photos in the #so50oldphoto challenge.

What you won't know is that Helga only make her Instagram account public at the start of 2021 because she discovered the Sewover50 community and was embraced by the community and our #waiwot lead, Julie of @consistenlydifferent designs.

Helga describes Sewover50 as the 'mothership' for all the work that goes on behind the scenes to keep people in the sewing community connected and engaged.

Congratulations to Sewover50 for passing 30,000 follower milestone in April 2021. An amazing achievement and a community that makes everyone feel included.
