3 Simple Summer Sewing Tutorials

in Bags and Pouches on 01/08/22

Welcome! How is your summer going? Are you in a sewing funk OR are you sewing up a storm? I find that during the summer, people are often on a sewing break or having the time of their life sewing happily away.

HaberdasheryFun Canadian Summer

I have blogging and sharing sewing tutorials for 10+ years and over the years I have provided tutorials for babies, kids, bags, pouches, accessories, pillows and other items for the home. So, if you are looking for a summer pool or beach sewing tutorial, you have come to the right place.

Here are links to 3 fun tutorials. Click the blue link and it will take you to the tutorial.

Hooded Baby Towel

This is a great everyday baby towel and is also perfect for the pool or beach! Sew it up in a colorful terry towel and you have something fun for the summer. You can always keep the Terry towel white and have a classic hooded towel for the new baby. Link for the tutorial.

My entry for this week’s design challenge @spoon My entry for this week’s design challenge @spoonflower. Browns are definitely not my favorite color these days, but the challenge was “earth tones” and using just 4 colors. 

Ps. This started as a super simple block print and then I scanned it into the computer and drew the pattern in illustrator. 

If you have a moment you can head over to spoonflower to vote. ❤️✔️

Day 5 for #carvedecember is “Plain”. I’m not Day 5 for #carvedecember is “Plain”. I’m not a huge fan of florals, and for some reason this shape came to mind. By itself it is kinda boring/ plain. In a repeat design it definitely comes alive. 

What is your printing process? Do you like all an over scattered or a grid pattern? My favorite way to work is using a pencil grid and then making a very linear and streamlined print.
