Ooh summer sewing! I just finished my first ‘beach’ tote of the summer and working on a quilt for a family member. I am now on a fabric diet for a bit (DH says 6 months) due to buying a house. So a free yard would be great!

Just found this blog last month. I’m so glad I did! My daughter is in 4H and we were having a terrific time figuring out how to install the zipper in her dress. Watching the tutorial followed by a little mooshing around and she was able to put in the zipper on her first try. It looks lovely. We plan to follow this blog for more sewing projects.
I could sure use that free fabric to get going on my summer sewing projects
I loved making the Vintage Smock and look forward to new projects in July!!

I need fabric for dresses.
A headstart for this southernite is needed at the rate I sew. I’m hoping for some good sunhat patterns.
I’m looking forward to making some nice shorts this summer!
If this is anything like Women’s Clothing Month, it will be excellent!
July already — yikes! Can’t wait to see what you have in store for us…
i am looking forward to some good summer projects.
Oh, summer sewing month – YES!!! I am just clearing the room today – and the piles are screaming to be sewn…
Can’t wait till Tuesday!
Hooray for Summer Sewing! My previous plans sadly fell through and now I have something to keep me occupied! (I’m a teacher) I cannot wait!

I have some free time this summer so I’m super excited for some summer sewing!!
I’m finally past end-of-schoolyear gifts, so I am excited to start some new projects!

Looking forward to the summer sewing!
It is so inspiring when people show pictures of what they made. It makes me want
to run to my stash and sew something. thank you all for your great photos!
I can’t wait to see what July brings. With the hot weather coming, spending time in the cool basement with the sewing machine sounds wonderful.
Christmas in July thoughts, summer reading, and now a fun month of sewing! Bring it on

This sounds like fun! I can’t wait to see what there is to sew… I need some new ideas.
Can’t wait for more inspiration!
I usually slow down on sewing in the summer so I need some summer inspiration! Can’t wait to see what’s coming . . . .
After a l-o-n-g move, my sewing machine has just been unearthed. I’m ready to get back into sewing! Please enter my name in the contest!
summer sewing hopefully will be me getting a head start on some christmas gifts that are churning in my head.
Yeah…another chance for free fabric and more interesting stuff to read!
Awesome! I’m looking forward to more inspiration!
Love this site!! Keep it up!
I look forward to seeing the summer projects.
No reason why I can’t add more to my to do list
after all we have a lifetime to sew
Sewing has certainly been my summer so far! Can’t wait to see what others are doing!
I’m doing a Christmas in July on my 30 days blog (www.thirtydays.blogspot.com)- 30 days of tutorials for the summer.
I would LOVE to win a yard of fabric.
Please include me (. . . .I would put the fabric to very good use. . . .I promise!)
Summer sewing? Yes, I’ll take some please!
I’ve already started some of my summer sewing but I need a few more projects to last through the summer. Im on bed rest due to a risky pregnancy so i’ll have plenty of time for some handwork!
Yippee!! Summer projects! I can’t wait.
Summer Sewing? I am so there. It goes along with my Spring, Fall and Winter Sewing quite well. I can’t wait.
Summer means skirts for me ^-^ I can’t wait to make a few more to add to my wardrobe.
I’m looking forward to what you guys dish out for inspiration!
oh I can’t wait!!! Yippee!!! Looking forward to summer sewing!
With friendship,

My summer sewing consists of mostly costumes for our community theater. We are doing Seven Brides for Seven Brothers this year, so I am buried under miles of white ruffles and seven colors of gingham!
oooo…I can’t wait to see what you’ve got lined up for us!!!
I’m looking forward to what you show us in July!!! You all are the best.
Great! Would love some new ideas for summer sewing!!!
I would love to win some free fabric!
I have three little dresses and one big dress already to sew in the next month, but that doesn’t mean I’m not up for more projects.
I love this site and I can’t wait to do some fun Summer Sewing!
excited to see your wealth of ideas
woohoo! can hardly wait to see what y’all have in store!
Oh, fun! More summer projects. Hopefully I can get them all done with a newborn on my lap. Hehehe.
Your site is inspiring! Anytime I need a jumpstart for pulling out the sewing machine I just visit your site! I can’t wait to see what is coming next and I can’t wait to visit my local fabric store to stock up on fabrics for the next project that strikes my fancy. I also drool over your fabric and would love to win a bit of it. I particularly loved the holiday projects. And as a novice sewer, I have learned many tricks of the trade that I didn’t have the patience to learn from my mom when I was 12. My day is just a little bit better when I visit this blog.
Looking forward to some new projects…
I love new projects
Now if I could just complete some of the old ones!
I am very excited to see what you have in store….
Sounds like fun – count me in!!!!
There aren’t enough hours in my summer days for all the projects I need to do.
New projects! Yay!
I am just so thrilled to open Sew Mama Sew every few days and see some thing new and exciting. I live on Vancouver Island a 2 hour drive from any city so this site provides me with wonderful inspiration.
Maybe some new fabric will motivate me to get going this summer with my projects.
What incentive to search around the blog a bit to find a place to comment. I bumped into your printable sewing guide and discovered a few great ideas that are bound to make my life easier (comments were closed though, so I’m back here to comment
Pick ME!
Sew Mama Sew Rocks! Free fabric for meeeeeeeee.
Please.
Does this mean I should have finished my winter projects? Oops.
I am so looking forward to the 1st now!
Anticipating a lot of good ideas!!! Can not wait to see what you have in store… I just found this site and can’t get enough already!
someday I will win.
Enter me in! I am new to your site, but am adding it to my favroites. I am a sewing wife to one, and mama to almost 3 (little man due in 6 weeks) I can’t wait to graze though your site!

I plan on sewing a lot more this summer. In fact, I am starting on my goal for this year, which is to make all of my Christmas gifts. I have attempted to make some of my gifts in the past and usually have a good response from most of my family members. I just never really get around to planning early enough to accomplish making everything.
If anyone here would like to join the flickr pool and all work on accomplishing whatever handmade goals that we each may have this year, that would be great!

Summer projects, goody! I hope to get some sewing done before it’s time to head back to work in August!
I love free fabric! I love projects too, better finish up the *few* I have covering my work space to make room!

July is totally going to be my month of sewing! Our schedule has finally cleared, so that means it’s time to get to all those projects I’ve been longing to do for the past few months!
