Is there anything better than the first beach day of the season? For me personally, it’s one of the best days of the year. I love approaching the sand and getting that first sight of the blue water and the colored beach umbrellas peppering the shore. After that, it’s time to decide what to do; do I want to read a book on my beach chair, or do I want to dive right into the waves? Either way, it always makes for a relaxing day, and I wanted to gather some of our best summer sewing projects to make sure you are all as prepared a possible for a wonderful day in the sun. 🙂

Before summer is officially upon us, it’s time to begin creating your DIY beach bag and learn how to make a beach towel! It’s time to sew a cute bucket hat to keep the sun out of your baby’s eyes and turn that old beach towel into the world’s best swim cover up. We’ve got patterns for all of these diy beach ideas and more below!
