Our Top 5 Summer Sewing Projects

When we think of summer quilts, we think of quilts we can make while sitting on the porch outside or can huddle under on a cold night out at the lake. Truth is, you can make any quilt any time of year if you put your mind to it, but some quilts definitely evoke that happy, free-spirited summertime feeling better than others. Summer sewing projects will have more heart and soul in them if they’re made in the summer, for the summer!

In no particular order, here are our top 5 summer quilting projects!

1. Deep Sea Themed Quilt for Kids

A bright blue ocean just screams “summer!” This themed fabric is a great gift for a summer baby or just an everyday summer quilting project. Go wild with the colors and prints for your deep-sea theme!

2. Llama Tie Blanket

This one’s cheating a bit, because it’s not technically a summer sewing project -- it’s a tie kit! 

You and your young kids can put together this tie blanket as a fun summer project. It’s a great way to introduce kids to the joy and rewarding nature of crafting something practical for yourself!

3. Rainbow Connection Spectrum Quilt Kit

In summer, the earth comes alive and flowers of all colors burst into life. What summer sewing project could be better than a vivid rainbow pattern?

4. Sunkist Pinwheel Star Quilt Kit

Like all of our quilt kits, this summer quilt kit has fabric for every piece of the quilt top, plus the backing and binding. Easy, breezy quilt making!

5. Seaside Beaches Hexies Quilt Kit

From a distance, this quilt looks like a neutral-all season quilt. But when you look closer, you’ll notice the delicate grey patterns of seashells and foliage that make this a distinctly summery quilt. 

What’s more, this quilt is made of fun hexagon shapes! You’ll enjoy the unique sewing challenge while celebrating the calm beauty of the beach.
