Free Sewing pattern: Reversible School Yard Sun Hat

Free pattern: Reversible School Yard Sun Hat

Free pattern: Reversible School Yard Sun Hat

Keep the harsh summer sun off of their tender young faces with this reversible fabric sun hat.  It’s called the Schoolyard Sun Hat, and it’s a free sewing pattern from Red Brolly.  The fabric hat can be easily tucked into a tote bag or purse so you won’t be caught out in the sun without one. It can actually fold up in to your back pocket or purse. Great addition to the emergency car bag. This Summer hat pattern is very easy to follow. I bet you won’t be able to make just one of these DIY summer hats.

Twist Wire Headband Sewing Tutorial

Cute summer hair is easy with a twist wire headband like this.  Headed to the beach?  To the park?  Just running errands around town?  Pull your hair back in a twist wire headband and you’ve got fun summer hair with no fuss.  There’s no need to tie a knot – just twist the ends of the headband around each other and the wires inside will hold it in place.  It’s also great for holding your hair up in a bun.  Perfect for hot summer days when you want to keep your hair off your neck!

Petro at Easy Peasy Creative shows how you can sew a twist wire headband.  It’s a quick little project you can sew in about 30 minutes.  Though I have a feeling that once you sew one, you’ll want to sew a bunch!  And why not?  Because if one cute headband is good, a stack of them is even better!  And then you can have one to match any outfit.  Head to Easy Peasy Creative for the twist wire headband sewing tutorial.

Are you looking for more things to sew for easy summer style?  Here are some suggestions:

This kimono cardigan is easy to make and dresses up even the most casual of outfits!  It also makes a great swim coverup if you’re headed to the beach or pool.  It takes just a few seams and there’s no pattern required.  Use lightweight, flowy fabrics to create a beautiful drape.  Go to Simple Simon & Co for an easy sewing tutorial. 

Take a basic t-shirt pattern and use it to sew a beautiful maxi dress!  It’s Always Autumn has a tutorial showing how.  Maxi dresses are the perfect summer dress.  Just throw on a maxi dress with some cute sandals and you’ve got a complete summer outfit.  It doesn’t get easier than that!
