PATTERNS IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER
Brim Hats for Children
We make and donate brim hats to various children's organisations and agencies including Little Things for Tiny Tots, Children's Oncology and the Remote Op Shop.
​
We use the Waves and Wilds Sandcastle bucket hat pattern in both cotton and lycra fabrics. This is a free pattern that you can order and download.
Cancer Pump Bags
A bag to hold a NIKI pump or similar for patients who have had surgery after being diagnosed with cancer mostly breast cancer and children's oncology. Fabrics for these are a sturdy cotton or even a thin upholstery type of fabric.
For children's oncology it has been requested to use Super Hero patterned fabrics.
Our Facebook group has excellent photographic directions by one of our volunteers.
Care Pillow Cases
These are given to children in oncology or with serious health issues such as Heartkids, also for children/teens transitioning around foster care:
The size of these can vary, but the size to fit a standard pillow in
Fabrics to be used for these: cottons and polycottons, any unique embellishments to personalise items as long as embellishments cannot be ingested or a choke hazard.
Some links for ideas:
FAMILY TOTE BAGS
We donate 100's of tote bags to various organisations to help reduce waste of plastic bags and to maintain sustainability. We usually have repurposed fabrics available but if you are providing your own we ask they are made in children/family friendly patterns. We have tweaked the pattern slightly and have a finished size of 40cm wide x 50cm long with a 55/60cm handle.
KIN Dolls
KIN dolls were created by Maryann Webb to send the message of love and hope to kids in need. It was a charity in itself. In 2020 Maryann handed the reins (and the patterns) to Sewing for Charity Australia, where the pattern still remains in their ownership.
We work together with Sewing for Charity Australia (SFCA). At present SFCA are having an upgrade of their website and some infrastructure changes. As such we have uploaded the pattern here for now.
Please note that the KIN doll and clothing pattern are for charitable use only and not for sales.
We at Get Scrubbed WA are making the dolls at present for children in care being distributed by Care Bags for Kids.
NASAL GASTRIC POUCHES
**We have enough of these at present
These pouches are used to keep the ends of NG tube clean and away from little hands. The end of the tube goes into the little pouch and then either pinned or clipped onto the child or adults clothing. We donate these to hospital wards who use them or patients going home from hospital with a tube.
NICU Items and items for babies born sleeping
While these are on our sewing list we like to keep note of who is sewing how many items as they tend to be very popular. If you would like to make any of these items please get in touch so we can guide you on what we need at that time
Seasonal - Christmas Stockings
During September and October every year we make Christmas stockings that we distribute to various organisations.
We use the Amy Smart pattern, which is a gorgeous free pattern
