These cheerful, warm-weather sewing ideas make perfect decorations, accessories, and gifts.

Quite the jackpot here! Lots of fun projects to choose from, my favorites:

• Smocked Sundress: This adorable smocked sundress is a perfect project for a summer weekend (also check out The Art Of Smocking: How To Guide).
• Bias-Tape Tote Bag: This handmade tote provides a proper place for all your essentials. The individual pockets are stitched together using bias tape, which binds the pieces and creates a colorful contrast to the pattern.
• Mesh Bag: With this convenient carryall, a day at the beach needn’t end with a bag full of sand.
• Waterproof Picnic Blanket: Don’t let yesterday’s rainstorm dampen your picnic plans: Waterproof a cotton or wool blanket by adding a protective backing of water-resistant fabric.
