    I spend a lot of time outdoors also but when it gets hot I love staying inside and find that I get a lot of sewing done.
    So I guess it really depends on the weather- high humidity rushes me inside.

    Definitely as I am busy with my children through out the year helping them with their school. Summer break is my big break. My studio does get realy hot and I often do not want to turn the air conditioner on due to cost. This year I think I will make a little center down stairs to sew. I think I will have DH bring down one of my vintage machines that is in a cabinet.

    I can't seem to get in the mood to sew in the summer. I don't worry too much about it cause I will make up for it in the fall.

    Ditto.
    If I have a big project to start, I will hold off until the summer.
