DIY Surgical Scrub Cap Free Sewing Pattern

Anyone else tired of making masks?
Don’t feel guilty – just make something else for a change. Our awesome doctors and nurses also need scrub hats, head bands, ear savers…
If you still want to help, but want a little break from mask making, make SURGICAL / SCRUB HATS with this easy step by step tutorial.
This scrub cap is super easy to sew and has just two pattern pieces – a great project for beginner sewists that are eager to help the medical workers or for the crafty medical workers themselves. this simple scrub hat design whips up in as little as 15 minutes so you can make a bunch to rotate them more often or sew up more to help more people get a hat in these times of need.
The hat in the tutorial has few options – you can either make it in one color, or use two different fabrics for a more fancy look. You can add an elastic at the back of the head if you want to go for a more fitted style, and finally you can sew on two buttons on each side of the hat to attach the mask ear loops to and reduce the strain on the ears. One simple design – so many options! Just try it!

I am just smitten with this felt gingerbread house bag. This would make such a sweet special Christmas accessory for a kid. It’s a free pattern at Benzie Design, designed by Gracie from Hello Gracie Makes. It’s packed with adorable gingerbread house details, like swirls and stripes and scallops adoring the doors and windows.

And while all those details might seem like this would be a complicated pattern, it’s actually not. The bag itself is made from felt, which makes finishes edges unnecessary. (All of those scalloped edges are just cut from felt, no edge finishing required.) The strap is super simple, made from rope with knotted ends. And all those details are made with some basic hand embroidery stitches. Sparkle felt makes it extra cute.

The striped scallop roof is actually the top flap of the bag. A magnetic snap makes it a secure closure. The rope straps are attached through felt loops at the side of the bag.

They rate this project as an intermediate level, and it should take about 6 hours to make start to finish. That’s doable for a Saturday project or a couple of evenings. Full color photos step you through the entire process.

The project includes a shopping list for all of your supplies. They’ve got a shop so you can order all of them from Benzie if you like and get exactly the supplies used in the project. I noticed it includes a pair of scallop shears, which makes cutting all the scalloped edges for the roof and around the door a breeze.

Finished dimensions of the little felt gingerbread bag are approximately 6 ½” wide x 7 ½” tall. That’s the perfect size to hold a small book, a small toy, or a notepad and some cute pens.
