Decorating for a holiday adds a little magic to the celebration. I love slowly making holiday sewing projects to add to my small collections. It’s great to add one thing a year to help me think about the holiday and remember celebrations from the past.
I love to get the decorations out for my home a month or so before, so that I can enjoy the decoration and anticipate the holiday. It also helps my kids get excited for the holiday. I really love change and switching things up so switching the holiday decorations is one of my very favorite things!
I’ve organized the links to all the holiday sewing projects by time of year and by holiday to make it easier for you to navigate:
Spring is exciting with the weather warming up, flowers blooming, and little animals being born. You can get inspired by Spring sewing projects and Easter sewing projects.
Summer is one of my favorite times of the year. I love being outside, swimming, and having picnics and barbeques. You can get inspired by Summer sewing projects and 4th of july sewing projects. You can also prepare with back to school sewing projects.
I have a Autumn birthday so it has a special place in my heart. I love wearing cardigans and boots, crunching leaves, and all the yummy fall food. You can get inspired by Fall sewing projects, or get ready for the holidays with halloween sewing projects (especially diy costumes) and Thanksgiving sewing projects.
Lastly there’s Winter sewing projects when you want to stay inside, cuddle, and craft. You can get inspired by christmas sewing projects and Valentine’s sewing projects.
