Spring has really sprung here in the UK, the evening are getting lighter and the spring flowers are brightening up the place. It’s a great time to get the sewing machine or a needle and thread out to start a sewing project or two.

I’ve put together a collection of some of my favourite sewing projects that are perfect for springtime. Some are about getting ready for warmer weather, spring time preparation for summer you could call it, others are about celebrating the fresh colours and vibes of spring.

1) Welcome the spring with Carrot and Bunny Spring Bunting from Sew Simple Home

2) Celebrate the season of sunshine and rain with a Rainbow Zipper Pouch from My Sew Bliss

3) These pretty spring colours work so well together in this Spring Mini Quilt from The Seasoned Homemaker

4) Decorate your home with these Embroidered Hanging Spring Bird Decoration, or make one and send it to a friend as a little surprise gift

5) Protect your knees when out gardening with a pretty Garden Kneeling Pad from Sisters, What!

6) Keep all your gardening essential to hand with this Upcycled Denim Gardening Apron from Vicky Myers Creations

7) Carry all your gardening equipment around in style with a Gardening Tool Bag from So Sew Easy

8) Another way to protect your knees, a simple gardening kneeler pad which only takes about 30 minutes to make

9) Pretty DIY Hair Ties in Spring colours from Apple Green Cottage
