What a great idea! It makes it a little easier for the patient if the staff is wearing something colorful and whimsy.

You do a fantastic job and I'm sure everyone appreciates it! Keep it up!

Sara - do you have a pattern for the guys as well / I am a nurse in ICU but I was trying to find a pattern for a guy in SPD who wears them daily. Do you have the customers provide you with the fat quarters/yardage, if so what a great way to build up a stash. Do the girls at the larger hospital mail you the fabric since they are so far away? At my hospital, all the RN's have to wear navy blue or white - boring ! The "higher" ups think it looks professional, oh well, I love nursing and I do get a paycheck. Would you mind sharing the girls pattern? I could mail you the fabric for the first one and have that as a sample for me as well... Thank you,Cindy

I have the girls buy 5/8th of yard - I need that much length for the full hat. Their choice. Then a nurse friend works in the other hospital and he drives over each week, so he is my currier. There are a few pieces that I thought were ugly, but most are wonderful.

No, I don't sew boy hats. I got a pattern from my anesthesia friend, bought him the fabric, and all ready to sew it, and he was killed in a plane crash that week, and I've never felt much like sewing them since then. All I would suggest is getting either a hat that the reps leave, or a paper hat, and make a pattern from that.
