The Masked Mask Maker Rides Again

I am making more masks for essential workers. 

All I need to do is finish cutting and shaping the nose wires 

and another batch will be ready to sew. 

I am using this

I also add a sewn in inner filter layer and nose wire pockets.

The Masked Mask Maker

I pre-wash all fabrics and wear a mask when sewing.

May these masks help keep someone well.

May you and yours stay well and safe.

Every Little Mask Helps

I am sewing Personal Use Fabric Masks.

I am using two layers or washed 100% tight woven quilting cotton.

I am adding a nose wire pocket
and making one deep chin tuck pleat
and a smaller ear tuck pleat.
This makes the mask more comfortable to wear.
I may make button headbands next.

My husband and I both need a larger mask.

I am cutting 7.5" by 11" rectangles of top fabric and white lining fabric.
My elastics are cut at 5"

I have found online that if you cut the filter lining from a clean, unused
vacuum cleaner bag you can add an inner liner layer that is N95 equivalent.
It does make the mask warmer and less breathable.

Making and wearing personal use masks from materials I have at home
helps me to feel that I am helping others.

There are many, many mask patterns on the web.

May you find one that works for you and ...

... sew many masks.

Every little mask helps.

May you and yours be well and safe and calm.
