Make Clothes With Us. Make a Difference.

At Maison de Sérénne Foundation, we believe that clothing can restore dignity, comfort and confidence — especially for people living with medical conditions, disabilities, or vulnerability.

One of the most powerful ways to support our work is by using your skills, creativity, and care to make clothing for others.

Whether you are an experienced sewer, a student, part of a sewing group, or someone who simply loves to create, you can help.

Make Clothing for Donation

We invite individuals, community groups, schools, and sewing collectives to make garments using our free patterns and donate them to the Foundation.

These garments will support:

Patients in hospitals and hospices
People with disabilities or reduced mobility
Individuals with medical needs (including stomas, lines, and sensory sensitivities)
Families experiencing hardship

Every item you make helps someone feel more comfortable, dignified, and seen.

Free Patterns Coming Soon

We are developing a growing library of free, accessible patterns, designed specifically for:

Adaptive and medical clothing
Sensory-friendly garments
Easy-access fastenings
Comfort-led, inclusive designs

These patterns will be:

Free to download
Suitable for home sewing
Clearly labelled with fabric and skill-level guidance

📌 Pattern downloads will be available soon.
Sign up to our mailing list or follow us on social media to be notified when they launch.

What Can You Make?

Examples of items we will be accepting include:

Adaptive tops and gowns
Soft, sensory-friendly clothing
Easy-access garments for medical lines or stomas
Comfort wear for hospice and hospital settings

Sewing as a Community

We warmly welcome:

Sewing circles and craft groups
Colleges and schools
Fashion students
Community organisations
Corporate volunteering groups

If you’d like to organise a group making day, fundraiser, or skills-sharing session, we would love to hear from you.

Donate Your Finished Items

Once completed, garments can be donated directly to the Foundation.
Details on where and how to send items will be published alongside our pattern library.

All donated items are handled with care and distributed through trusted healthcare and community partners.

Why It Matters

By making clothing for Maison de Sérénne Foundation, you are:

Supporting dignity in healthcare and disability
Reducing textile waste
Sharing skills for social good
Turning compassion into something tangible

A single garment can make a profound difference to someone’s comfort and wellbeing.
