Fun and Easy Projects To Sew This Summer

Summer can be the perfect time to take on a new sewing project. There are many fun projects to try out when you have some downtime. If you need a new sunhat, why not make it yourself instead of buying a new one? If you’re looking for some ideas, this blog has fun and easy sewing projects to try this summer.

Sunglasses Case

Have you ever tossed your sunglasses into your purse, bag, or car, and later on, when you retrieve them, found them damaged? Create a case to keep your glasses safe from scratches. Make a felt pouch lined with satin or a floral-patterned case encrusted in rhinestones. You can go simple or fancy; it’s up to you.

Beach Bag

Do you spend a lot of time at the beach during the summer? Maybe it’s time to make your own beach bag! Make sure it’s big enough to fit all the towels, sunscreen, toys, and other accessories for a fun day in the sun. A sturdy, wide bottom will make your beach bag perfect.

Sun Hats

Sun hats are a great fashion statement, and they protect you from the harsh sun rays of the summer. Plus, who doesn’t love a new fashion piece? There are even reversible patterns available so that you can switch things up.

To keep the brim from being too flimsy, use fusible interfacing. Clip the curves to avoid any lumps and bumps as you finish the project.

Summer Romper for Kids

Summer brings outdoor playtime, especially for the kids. Rompers are easy to throw on your kids to let them go out and have fun for the day. Then, you can easily change them out of the romper after an afternoon of puddle jumping. Find a fabric with patterns your children love, such as unicorns or a sports team. Perhaps you want to use a new floral print, and a romper would be the perfect place.

Loose Fit Summer Pants

The hot weather of summer isn’t the best time to be wearing tight clothing. Linen or cotton pants are excellent options for breezy summer nights. The wide-legged pants provide the flow of a maxi skirt with additional mobility. Explore different colors and patterns, or dye the material yourself if you feel ambitious.

Feel free to try out any of these fun and easy summer sewing projects. They all make excellent additions to your closet.
