Free Baby-Related Patterns for
Non-Profit Charity Organizations
Every time I hear of a cause that is helped by those that sew I wish for the time to contribute myself; to help train non-wed mothers to sew for their babies, to sew baby shoes for preemies or newborns, to sew nursing aprons for new mothers who are having problems nursing in public. I recently came to the conclusion that I can help in my own way, by supplying patterns to those that help others.
So if you belong to a group, organization, or foundation that sews (or teaches others to sew) and are a Non-Profit, I would like to offer you any of the baby related patterns I have on my site for free.
Nursing
Of interest to organizations promoting nursing might be the Pleated Privacy Nursing Apron pattern as well as the Twin/Toddler Nursing Pillow pattern which has a back support pillow. I also have a Boppy-styled Nursing Pillow Cover pattern
Mother-To-Be
Any mother-to-be, including unwed mothers, might be interested in the Soft-Sole shoe collection which includes a Shoe, Sandal, Mary Jane, and Boot patterns. I also have available a large selection of Appliqués to use for decorating the shoes.
Financially challenged mothers might like to make a new Infant Car Seat Cover to help improve the look of the car seat they have or their own Fitted Crib Sheets.
Sick or Terminally Ill Children’s Groups
If you are a non-profit organization supporting sick or terminally ill children you may be interested in the Shopping Cart Cover and Twin Shopping Cart Cover patterns I offer. These would be essential for any child under 50 pounds who still rides in shopping carts and has a low immunity system.
Sewing Groups
A sewing group that sews for hospitals might appreciate the Soft-Sole Shoe pattern for newborns and preemies as well as the Swaddle Blanket pattern.
Receiving Your Patterns
I prefer that only one person from an organization/group contact me. When possible your patterns will be sent via email; if not possible I will mail them out. I need some proof that you are associated with the group you claim to be and will require a receipt for all products I send you. The patterns I send you can not be used to sew items for resale; all items must be donated or given away free. A credit link back to my site is not mandatory, but is always greatly appreciated.
Each organization is limited to $50 worth of patterns per six month period. All requests for patterns for non-profit organizations will be filled as time permits.
I’m really excited about this opportunity and hope it generates some positive feedback as well.
