Dear All
I do hope you are staying healthy during this madness?
The 'Stay at Home' message is to protect us all and as the days have gone on I have been feeling more and more uneasy about processing our online orders. With postal services reduced I have decided that I will not be sending anymore orders from the shop - apologies if you are in the middle of a project, but I hope you understand - I need to protect myself and Steven too!
We are family and are happy to help remotely with any problems or queries - please just ask - email me Hope to see you soon - Jo xx
Sewing Fairies - WE NEED YOU...
I have been approached by the Southern Hampshire Primary Care Alliance who work with GP Practices from Bordon to Hayling Island & Fareham. They are in desperate need for Clinical Gowns as pictured to run the two hubs for respiratory patients as well as another hub for non respiratory patients, phlebotomy services and assisting with home visiting services.
I am currently working on a pattern to make with light Rip Stop waterproof fabric We need 200 gowns made ASAP - fabric will be available early next week...
This is how you can help: Become a Sewing Fairy - standard sewing machine required - overlocker not essential - very simple pattern - trickiest bit will be sewing the cuff elastic!
Distribution - deliver fabric to sewing fairies & pattern cutters, collect and then deliver to allocated GP surgeries
Pattern Cutting - Help the sewing fairies by using the pattern dimensions & cutting the pieces ready for sewing
Each gown costs £3.50 (this is the actual cost of the fabric & elastic) - Please fund a gown (or 2!) - I have just set up a Go Fund Me page so please donate - thank you
Social Media Promotion - please help me set up and promote
If You are Able & Willing to HELP in anyway PLEASE email me ASAP - message me here
