When the sun is out, and tennis season has begun, there is nothing quite so appealing as a delicious, ripe strawberry (with maybe a scoop of cream on the side).  If you want to keep that strawberry-feel-good factor with you all year long, here are a collection of sewing projects inspired those special summer berries.

Check out this Quilted Strawberry Coaster Tutorial from diary of a Quilter.  The instructions and photos are really clear, and the process is a great way to get into quilting.  A perfect summery coaster for a lovely summery drink.

Or try following the step-by-step photos from handmadiya to make this adorable fold-up Strawberry Shopper Bag.

You might like to try these cute little Strawberry Pincushions from Down Grapevine Lane (the perfect gift for a sewer to give as well as make…)

If you are interested in patchwork quilts, you may want to take a look at this free Strawberry Block Tutorial from Skyberries Handmade…

Or you may like to download these free Fruit Applique and Embroidery Patterns by Stubbornly Crafty to create a rather sweet little strawberry motif…
